context_page_description: The Takarazuka Kofun is group of two keyhole-shaped kofun burial mounds located approximately three kilometers to the south of the center of the city of Matsusaka, Mie Prefecture Japan. They are protected as a National Historic Site by the Japanese government.
context_section_description: Slightly smaller than Kofun No.2, this tomb is described as “scallop-type” as its keyhole shape is not fully developed. The round burial chamber has a diameter of 89 metres (292 ft) and a height of 10.5 metres (34 ft). The extent of the rectangular portion is uncertain due to partial destruction of the site by the construction of nearby modern residences, despite its official protected status. As with Kofun No.1, numerous haniwa have been uncovered, and the tomb dates from the early 5th century AD.
