Ishinohōden Kofun, Ancient burial mound in Neyagawa, Japan

The Ishinohōden Kofun features a keyhole-shaped design with one square end and one circular end, situated at 100 meters elevation on Mount Ikoma's western slope.

Archaeological findings indicate the burial chamber construction dates to the middle of the 7th century, based on Sue ware pottery fragments discovered at the location.

The burial chamber includes specific architectural elements like megaliths forming an entry portico and round dents suggesting the presence of an ancient door system.

Visitors can reach the burial mound by taking a 15-minute walk from Neyagawakōen Station on the JR West Katamachi Line in Osaka Prefecture.

The stone burial chamber maintains its original structure with a base stone measuring 2.7 by 1.6 meters and a ceiling stone of 3.2 by 3.3 meters.
