Kufun, ancient tumuli are the remains of graves that expressed feelings of sadness and mourning for the dead. Even today, just as funerals, tools used, and graves vary depending on the period, region, and religious sect, there are also different types of ancient tumuli. However, the feeling of sadness over someone's death remains the same regardless of the period, and is one of the strongest human emotions. That is why ancient tumuli so clearly express the period and regional characteristics of the time.
A variety of burial goods are buried in ancient tumuli. At Taki Tumulus No. 3, many valuable materials such as straight swords, suzugyoyo, harness pendants with bells, and tsujikanagu, strap joint fitting, jar stands, wine server and iron arrowheads were unearthed from the horizontal stone chamber. In particular, the suzugyoyo are the only ones unearthed in Noto, providing us with a hint regarding the status of the buried person.
