The Danjōzuka Kofun is a cluster of four burial mounds located in the Mikuninochō-Kokubunji neighborhood of Himeji, Hyōgo Prefecture, in Japan's Kansai region. These tumuli exemplify the zenpō-kōen-fun type, a distinctive square-fronted kofun form characteristic of ancient Japanese funerary architecture. Collectively designated a National Historic Site in 1921, the mounds represent an important archaeological testament to Japan's prehistoric mortuary practices.
