Inariyama Kofun

Keyhole-shaped mound at Gyoda, Saitama, Japan, 120 m long and the first in the Sakitama kofun cluster, later 5th century. It stands in two steps inside a double rectangular dry moat about 1.8 m deep; the square end was quarried away as landfill. The burial held a wooden coffin packed in clay on gravel, with iron swords, a bronze mirror, magatama, two silver rings and horse harness. The finds became an Important Cultural Property in 1981 and a National Treasure in 1983. National Historic Site 1938, Special Historic Site 2020.
