Jingū-ji Kofun
Jingū-ji Kofun submitted by Aska : Site in Honshū Japan (Vote or comment on this photo)
A round (or scallop-shaped) tumulus on the slope of a hill in Honshū. The lower stone on the right at the rear has a hollow with a black ring mark. Some archaeologists regard this as a rare example of a prehistoric mural painting, but it could just be a black layer in the stone revealed by the hollow.
