A group of 6 round and 1 keyhole-shaped tumuli, now most of them has been demolished. The destroyed tumulus no.3 had red-and black mural paintings, now the 3 painted stones (exact position unknown) are moved and buried under a reconstructed mound in front of Sakuragawa Shōkōkai (桜川商工会, Sakuragawa City Chamber of Commerce).
Non-mural tumulus no.2 still lies in situ (36.35095N,14013115E).
