Obaka Kofun is a zenpō-kōen-fun (keyhole-shaped mound tomb) located in Tenri, Nara Prefecture, Japan, dating to around 600 CE. This architectural style, characterized by a circular mound adjoined to a rectangular platform, represents a distinctive form of kofun burial construction that flourished during Japan's Kofun period.
