The Takaya Tsukiyama Kofun is a zenpō-kōen-fun (keyhole-shaped mound tomb) located in Habikino, Osaka Prefecture, Japan, dating to around 600 CE. This imperial mausoleum exemplifies the distinctive architectural form of late-period kofun, characterized by its keyhole-shaped earthwork that combines a circular burial mound with a rectangular ceremonial platform, a design reserved for the highest-ranking burials of the Kofun period.
