Ishibutai Kofun

Ishibutai Kofun is a tomb built in the late Yamato period in Asuka, near Nara. It is said to be the tomb of Soga no Umako, who played a role in the political reforms of Prince Shotoku. The tomb, which is the largest in Japan, demonstrates a major part of what we know about the Yamato Period.
