Naju Futamiri Tomb Exhibition Hall

Four ancient tombs from the Three Kingdoms period are scattered on the low hills to the west of Futsuam-ri. This area is a hilly region sandwiched between tributaries of the Yeongsan River, and there were once around seven tombs here, but they were removed 4 years ago during land reclamation. Tombs No. 7 and No. 30 were restored in 1995, and excavation surveys of Tomb No. 1 were carried out from 2 to 1996. All types of burial systems found in the Yeongsan River basin were confirmed in Tomb No. 1998, and 3 burial facilities were found. A variety of artifacts were also unearthed, including gilt bronze shoes, silver crown ornaments, and large swords.

Fushiiwa-ri Tomb No. 3 is an ancient tomb that was used from the late 5th century to the early 7th century and is a collective grave constructed by the indigenous Mahan forces. In particular, four jar coffins were unearthed in one stone chamber surveyed in 1996, indicating that the people buried in this early stone chamber tomb in the Yeongsan River basin were members of an existing powerful group who used jar coffins.

This ancient tomb is highly likely to be related to the nearby Aizu Castle, and will be an important resource for research into the ancient culture of the Yeongsan River basin. In addition, the Fushiiwazato Tomb is important for elucidating the ancient history of this region, which has not yet been fully understood, including research into its relationship with Japan and the relationship between the indigenous forces of the Yeongsan River basin and Baekje.
