Urama Chausuyama Kofun is an ancient keyhole-shaped burial mound located in the Urama neighborhood of Higashi-ku, Okayama Prefecture, in Japan's San'yō region. Built at the end of the 3rd century during the early Kofun period, it ranks among the oldest large zenpō-kōen-fun (keyhole-form) tumuli in the Kingdom of Kibi. The site was designated a National Historic Site of Japan in 1974.
