Tatetsuki/楯築遺跡
Description (Dublin Core)
en The Tatetsuki Site is a burial mound built in the late Yayoi period located in Yabe, Kurashiki City. Most of the protrusions were destroyed during the development work that took place in the 1960s, but the total length including the disappeared protrusions is estimated to be about 80m, making it one of the largest burial mounds in Japan during the same period.

An excavation survey conducted by Okayama University revealed that the main burial was a wooden coffin structure with wooden boards surrounding the outside of the coffin. At the bottom of the wooden coffin, a large amount of mercury vermilion with a total weight of more than 32 kg was thickly spread, and on top of it, an iron sword, magatama, tube beads, small glass beads, and other beads were buried. . In addition, in the vicinity of the center of the circular mound, which is the upper part of the central body, a large number of pebbles are deposited. Many relics were included, such as a small stone with a pattern similar to the Sentaimonseki, which is the object of worship of the former Tatetsuki Shrine.
jp 楯築遺跡は，倉敷市矢部に所在する弥生時代後期に造られた墳丘墓で，円丘部とその両側に長方形の突出部をもつ特異な形をしています。突出部の大部分は昭和４０年代に行われた開発工事で破壊されましたが，消滅した突出部を含む全長は約８０ｍと推定され，同時期の墳丘墓では全国でも最大級の大きさを誇ります。

　岡山大学が行った発掘調査により，中心主体となる埋葬は，木棺の外側を木の板で囲んだ木棺木槨構造であることがわかりました。木棺の底には，総重量３２kgを越える大量の水銀朱が分厚く敷き詰められており，その上には鉄剣１口と勾玉や管玉，ガラス製小玉などの玉類が副葬されていました。また，中心主体の上部にあたる円丘部の中央付近には，おびただしい数の円礫が堆積しており，この中には特殊器台などの土器類や土製品をはじめとして炭や灰，また，旧楯築神社の御神体である旋帯文石（せんたいもんせき）と同様の文様をもつ小形の石など，数多くの遺物が含まれていました。
