The Inarimori Kofun is a large keyhole-shaped burial mound located in Nan'yō, Yamagata Prefecture, in Japan's Tōhoku region. This archaeological site represents the zenpō-kōen-fun type of kofun—the distinctive keyhole-form tumuli characteristic of Japan's Kofun period. The mound was designated a National Historic Site of Japan in 1980, recognizing its significance as evidence of elite burial practices and cultural development during this important era of Japanese prehistory.
