    Is it really the tomb of emperor bunmu?

    Original Text

    An octagonal burial mound near the Takamatsuzuka burial mound. It is the form of an old burial mound at the end of the Kofun period, but it has been suspected to be the tomb of Emperor Monmu since the Edo period. However, excavation investigations have been carried out as research objects without being designated as tombs. The emperor of this era was cremated, and it is said that the owner of this tomb was also cremated. The tomb of Emperor Monmu, designated as the tomb of the Imperial Household Agency, is just a short distance from here. Even if the designation based on the knowledge of the Edo period is so negative with the knowledge of modern archaeology, it will change ...

    It is an old burial mound that is said to be the tomb of Emperor Monmu, and it is very close to the Takamatsuzuka tomb, which is famous for its mural paintings, and I just glanced at it, but immediately after my visit, I learned that it is a great burial mound with NHK's special feature. It seems that it is valuable to be an octagonal tomb and a cremation tomb (cremation tomb). At the time of the visit, an octagonal stone set was dug up and exposed during the excavation investigation for the first time in 50 years. I realize once again that it is an area where important historical sites are rugged.

    It is near the Takamatsuzuka Kofun Tumulus. It is located on a small hill up a little slope. It's very close to the park and there is a parking lot in the park, so it's a little far away, but you can also accelerate by car.

    It was on a hill at the national Asuka Historical Park.

    Original Text

    The main national Asuka Historical Park is the Takamatsuzuka Kofun. We arrived at the Takamatsuzuka Kofun in about 10 minutes on foot from the parking lot of the park, and headed to the Emperor Monmu Mausoleum in the back. I stopped by this Nakaoyama Kofun tumulus on my way home. This tumulus was on the mountain around the middle of the park. I thought that this tumulus would not notice it if there was no display.

    it's called an octagonal tumulus.

    Original Text

     A vast national Asuka Historical Park. This park is scattered in 5 places in the Asuka region, but the Nakaoyama Kofun tumulus is located in the area where the Takamatsuzuka Kofun tumulus is located. We parked our car in the parking lot of the park and stopped by this Nakaoyama Kofun on the way back from visiting the Takamatsuzuka Kofun and Emperor Monmu Mausoleum. The park, which is quite large, has a large ups and downs, and this Nakaoyama Kofun tumulus is on a small hill, so you have to climb quite a bit. This tumulus is an octagonal tumulus (octagonal tumulus) ...
