Built in the 3rd century, this tomb contained bronze mirrors with inscriptions from the year 239, marking the oldest dated mirrors found in Japan.

The tomb represents early Japanese burial practices with its bamboo coffin structure and offerings including bronze mirrors, iron objects, and glass beads.
