Funadama Kofun
Funadama Kofun submitted by Aska : Site in Honshū Japan (Vote or comment on this photo)
Passage Grave in Honshū. A square tumulus in a small commune. The top of the mound had modified into a precinct of a shintō shrine but the 2011 great earthquake destroyed it.

The chamber, closed to public, has red-and-white mural paintings of circles, arrow case, ship etc., but now almost unrecognizable.
