What the sources say

大牧1号古墳(おおまきいちごうこふん)は、岐阜県各務原市鵜沼大伊木町にある円墳。

正式には大牧1号墳といい、大牧古墳群に属する。大牧古墳群の中で最も完全に残っている古墳である。隣接して2号墳と3号墳があったが、陵南小学校建設の際、石室などの状態が1号墳よりも悪かったことから、残す古墳を1号墳のみとして、祈祷の上削平された。

被葬者は墳丘や石室の規模、副葬品の内容から当時の木曽川流域一帯を勢力圏とする有力な豪族であったと考えられる。

各務原台地の南縁から木曽川に向けて突き出す台地の北端部に位置し、西方約300メートルに所在する前方後円墳のふな塚古墳(4号墳)とともに総数80基以上からなる大牧古墳群の中心的な地位を占める古墳である。

1982年(昭和57年)11月の各務原市立陵南小学校建設に伴う発掘調査の結果、墳丘の大部分が台地の地山を削って造りだされた直径約30メートルの円墳と推定され、墳丘の周囲には北部から東部、南部にかけ幅約5メートルの間濠が断続的に廻っていた。

墳丘の内部には、南に開口する横穴式石室が構築されている。

In brief

Sources for this section

Oumakiichigoukohun, formally called 大牧1号墳, is a megalithic burial mound in 岐阜県各務原市鵜沼大伊木町4丁目425, within the grounds of 各務原市立陵南小学校. It belongs to the 大牧古墳群 and is the most completely preserved mound in that group. Its location is on the northern edge of a plateau projecting toward 木曽川.

The monument is a keyhole-shaped 前方後円墳. Excavation in 1982 indicated that most of the mound was made by cutting into the natural ground and forming a circular mound approximately 30 meters in diameter. A discontinuous moat about 5 meters wide ran around its northern, eastern and southern sides. The total length was 45 meters.

Inside is a horizontal stone chamber opening to the south, measuring about 4.5 meters deep, 2.5 meters wide and 3.5 meters high. It contained a 凝灰石製组合式家形石棺 measuring about 2.4 meters long and 1.3 meters high. Finds included weapons such as 直刀, 鉾 and 鉄鏃; horse equipment including 轡, 鐙 and 杏葉; and ornaments such as glass beads, gold-loop earrings and silver hollow beads.

Oumakiichigoukohun is dated by typological estimate to 250 CE to 650 CE. Its mound and stone chamber, together with the grave goods, suggest that the buried person belonged to a powerful local clan whose sphere of influence extended along 木曽川. It has been a 各務原市指定文化財 since 1984年(昭和59年)6月26日. Access is through 各務原市立陵南小学校 by prior reservation.
