黒姫山古墳
A keyhole tomb turned historical park, famous for yielding massive caches of ancient iron armor.
A mid-sized keyhole tomb notable for the incredible amount of iron armor and weapons excavated from its interior. While the mound itself is fenced, the surrounding area has been nicely developed into a historical park. Visitors can walk the perimeter and read detailed plaques about the findings.
Visit the nearby Sakai City Museum to actually see the impressive iron helmets and armor pulled from this specific tomb.
