The {{nihongo|'''Ikisan Chōshizuka Kofun'''|一貴山銚子塚古墳|}} is a [[Kofun period]] [[Kofun|burial mound]], located in the [[Nijo, Fukuoka|Nijo-Tanaka]] neighborhood of the city of [[Itoshima, Fukuoka|Itoshima]], [[Fukuoka Prefecture]] [[Japan]]. The tumulus was designated a [[Monuments of Japan|National Historic Site of Japan]] in 1957.<ref name="Bunka1">{{cite web |url=https://bunka.nii.ac.jp/heritages/detail/173255|title=銚子塚古墳|language=ja |publisher=Agency for Cultural Affairs |accessdate=December 20, 2023}}</ref> It is the largest ''kofun'' on the [[Genkai Sea]] coast.
==Overview==
The Chōshizuka Kofun is a {{nihongo|''[[Zenpokoenfun|zenpō-kōen-fun]]''|前方後円墳}}, which is shaped like a keyhole, having one square end and one circular end, when viewed from above. It is situated on a hill overlooking [[Karatsu Bay]] on the west bank near the mouth of the Nagano River that flows north. It has a total length of 103 meters, although it has somewhat lost its original shape. The posterior circular portion is estimated to have a diameter of 60 meters, and the width of the rectangular anterior portion is 31 meters, narrowing to 26 meters at the neck. The tumulus has no traces of ''[[fukiishi]]'' nor ''[[haniwa]]'', and it is uncertain if it originally had a surrounding moat. In an 1950 [[archaeological excavation]], it was discovered that a pit-style stone [[burial chamber]] remained in the rear circle, made of [[granite]] cobbles, with a length of 3.4 meters, width of 1.4 meters and height of 0.8 meters. The upper part was covered with [[basalt]] slabs and the floor was paved with stones. It was orientated diagonally to the main axis of the tumulus. [[Grave goods]] included ten [[bronze mirror]]s, ''[[magatama]]'' beads, cylindrical beads, iron swords, spears, and arrowheads. One of the square-shaped four divine mirrors and one mirror with inner flower patterns are placed near the head of the coffin, and date from the middle to late [[Han Dynasty]]. The four triangular-rimmed divine and beast mirrors were made in Japan and were placed on the left and right side edges. Currently, most of the excavated items are stored at the [[Kyoto University]] Museum. From the style of the tumulus and the grave goods, it is estimated that this tumulus was constructed in the later 4th century. <ref name="Shiseki">{{cite book |last1=Isomura |first1=Yukio |last2=Sakai |first2=Hideya |title=(国指定史跡事典) National Historic Site Encyclopedia |date=2012 |publisher=学生社 |isbn=4311750404}}{{in lang|ja}}</ref>
The tumulus is located approximately 450 meter northeast of [[Ikisan Station]] on the [[JR Kyushu]] [[Chikuhi Line]].<ref name="Shiseki"/>
