Kamenokoyama Kofun is a Kofun period burial mound located in the Den-en-chōfu neighborhood of Ōta, Tokyo. Built in the zenpō-kōen-fun style—a distinctive keyhole-shaped form—it stands as one of 54 kofun in the Ebaradai kofun cluster that extends along the banks of the Tama River in Japan's Kantō region. Designated a National Historic Site in 1928, the mound represents an important surviving example of monumental funerary architecture from the Kofun period.
