Gazing upon these ancient stones, what stories do you think they could tell? We stand before the 史跡大石塚小石塚古墳 Stele, a testament to a time long past. The 史跡大石塚小石塚古墳 Stele marks not one, but two keyhole-shaped burial mounds, known as the Oishizuka and Koishizuka Kofun. These kofun are part of the Sakuranzuka Kofun Cluster. They offer a glimpse into the culture and beliefs of people who lived here between the 4th and 5th centuries. The larger of the two, the Oishizuka Kofun, stretches over 80 meters and is the largest within the Sakuranzuka group. Its surface once held cylindrical and comma-shaped clay figures, known as haniwa. Imagine the rituals and ceremonies that must have taken place here. The smaller Koishizuka Kofun, while only half the size, is no less significant. It too boasts haniwa, remnants of a vibrant past. Both kofun, along with three others in the cluster, were designated as a National Historic Site in 1956. The 史跡大石塚小石塚古墳 Stele stands as a silent guardian. It watches over these ancient resting places. It invites us to connect with the echoes of history. They whisper tales of a time when these mounds were new. A time when they served as a bridge between the world of the living and the realm of the ancestors.
