Research Abstract

Our reserch into the carirn tumuli of omuro has started in 1984. The OMURO No.168 Tumuli sitting in Mujinagoro unit had excaveted as the 11th and 12th investigations in 1993-1994. The result are as follows.
(1) OMURO No.168 Tumuli is a typical Cairn-tumuli, and it has 14m length, 13m width, and 4m height. Its main funeral stone chamber is Gassyougata-house style chamber. Within the chamber has been disturbed already and we could find no funeral treasures.
(2) In the south side of mound, there were a amount of Hajiki-unglazed red pottery of Kofun Age and Sueki-unglazed glay pottery of Kofun Age. Among them, we found the Horse shaped clay figure which is the oldest relic from tumuli.
(3) These Sueki are comprehended as the early-type in 5th century and they seem to correspond with chronology of these Hajiki in Eastern
part of Japan. So we resulted that Omuro No.168 Tumuli had been constracted in 5th century.
These results are considered the possibility that the cairn tumuli of Omuro had something with acient government pasture of Kofun Age which mentioned in literary records.
