Chambered Cairn in Honshū
During the grading work of a hill in 1974, a chambered cairn was discovered, almost about to be crushed into pieces. There are more 2 mounds, the upper one is an earthen burial mound and lower one is not sure whether burial or natural mound.
The mound no.2, a chambered carin, is at the edge of graded cliff where the heart of Nagano city can be seen in far distant.
