Emperor Keitai was born in Takashima, and it is said that this placenta mound is where his mother, Princess Furihime, buried the Emperor's umbilical cord after giving birth. The placenta seems to be the name of the placenta.
This mound is a circular tumulus with a diameter of approximately 11.5m and a height of approximately 2.5m, and is estimated to have been constructed in the 6th century.
