Jūōmae Yokoana submitted by Aska : Site in Honshū Japan Tomb no.1(?) at the foot of the Japanese necropolis. (Vote or comment on this photo)
Rock Cut Tomb in Honshū

On the cliff behind the Hitachi Electric Wire factory, 29 rock cut tombs lie. Tombs nos.2, 11 and 14 have mural paintings. Some of them is triangle pattern, like Ōzuka Kofun in far Kyūshū and rather nearby Nakata Yokoana. But it is difficult to distinguish the tomb number.
