The Shidami Kofun group is a cluster of seven ancient Japanese burial mounds located in Moriyama-ku, Nagoya, in Aichi Prefecture's Tōkai region. Built in the characteristic zenpō-kōen-fun style—keyhole-shaped mounds combining a circular burial chamber with a rectangular forecourt—these monuments date to the Kofun period. The Shiratorizuka Kofun, the most prominent of the group, was designated a National Historic Site of Japan in 1972, with the remaining six mounds receiving the same designation in 2014.
