Long Barrow in Honshū
A reconstructed keyhole-shaped tumulus in Umami Kyūryō Kōen (馬見丘陵公園 = Umami hilly park) which contains many tumuli, namely the park is a tumuli preservation area in a newly developed residential town.
This tumulus was reconstructed half as it was, paved with pebbles, half as it is, covered with weeds.
A museum attached, admission free, open 9:00-17:00, closed on Monday and the days around the new years day.
