The Santonodai Site stretches across 10,000 square meters on a 55-meter-high plateau in the Isogo Ward of Yokohama City, Kanagawa Prefecture.
Archaeological excavations between 1959 and 1961 revealed 252 pit dwellings, including structures from the Jomon, Yayoi, and Kofun periods of Japanese history.
The Santonodai Archaeological Museum exhibits numerous artifacts that demonstrate the evolution of living patterns in ancient Japanese communities through different periods.

The site contains an exceptional oval-shaped pit dwelling measuring over 14 meters along its major axis, representing advanced construction methods of ancient Japan.
