Kōtōgeguchi Kofun is a zenpō-kōen-fun (keyhole-shaped burial mound) located in Takayama, Gifu Prefecture, Japan, dating to around 600 CE. This architectural form—characterized by a circular rear section joined to a rectangular front section—was a distinctive funerary structure of early Japanese prehistory, reflecting the monumental ambitions of the period's elite classes.
