This group of ancient tombs, consisting of three, including the largest keyhole-shaped tomb in the prefecture, is designated as a national historic site. Based on the excavated items and its size, this keyhole-shaped tomb is estimated to have been built in the first half of the 5th century (around 412), and the person buried there is believed to have been a chieftain from the southern part of Aki. Currently, the roofing stones have been restored to the slope, and the area is being maintained as a historic park. Excavated items are also on display in the guidance corner of Higashihiroshima City Central Library, adjacent to Mitsujo Tomb (closed the same hours as the library).
