Korean name함평죽암리고분

Machine-translated from Korean. Show original

These tombs are located on a low hill called ‘Ttedeungi’ at the intersection of Sonbul-myeon and Singwang-myeon in Hampyeong-gun. Currently, it overlooks a large farmland, but it is said that before the embankment was built on the sea side, sea water came up to the front of the tomb. The tomb is in the form of a front apse with a square front and a round back, with an oval-shaped circular part in the northeast and a trapezoidal square in the southwest. Hampyeong Jugam-ri Tomb is a tomb discovered in the Yeongsan River basin and has many similarities with Japan's Jeonhuwon tomb, making it an important resource for the ancient history and tomb research of the two countries.
