Yoro HisagoZuka Kofun
Yoro HisagoZuka Kofun submitted by Aska : The view from the square part towards the round mound with sorrel. (Vote or comment on this photo)
A keyhole-shaped tumulus (100m approx.). The edges of angled part slightly spread like a bell, some scholar suspect that this tumulus is designed in similar figure to Hashihaka Kofun (278m) and such peculiar figure indicates that these are the earliest ones.
