Yamashiro Futagozuka Kofun

Reference/Local/Exhibition/Literature Museum
"Measuring 94 meters long, it is the largest rectangular-shaped kofun ancient tomb in the prefecture. Part of it was removed when a former Army infantry was set up, but it is now been restored. It is famous for being the first tomb to be called a ""rectangular-shaped kofun"" in Japan in 1925. The two-level tomb is surrounded by a moat and dike. There is an observation room in the rear where you can see the real embankment, and you can see that a high level of skill was used to make the tomb. It is thought that the burial chief of the eastern part of Izumo is buried in the tomb because cylindrical haniwa clay images and Sue pottery were excavated from the foot of the mound and the surrounding moat."

Review

  • 古墳を見学出来る

    山代二子塚古墳のガイダンス施設ですので、見学をする観光地としても人気があります。石室の実物大模型があったり、古墳に関する解説パネルが設置されてますので、学校などの子供の教育の観光地としても有名です。入場料が無料となってますし、大型のバスが止められる駐車場もあります。古代の見物を実際に見ることが出来るので、とても勉強になります。
  • 一帯山城国です

    山城国の歴史的遺物がこの辺りに点在しています。角ばった山代二子塚古墳に、いかにも企画整理された山城国遺跡正倉跡など、いかにも神話の里らしい世界が広がっていました。
  • 古代出雲の国の跡

    古代出雲の国の遺跡が見学しやすい様に保存、展示されています。まあ社会見学としては見やすい施設だと思います。
