Description

There are numerous tombs on the southwestern slope of Bunsan Mountain in the northeast of Gimhae, which are also located just 100-500m northeast to the tomb of the queen of King Suro. This place is divided into two areas, simply called the A group and B group, and each has two tombs. Only four have been found, but there seemed to have been like more tombs were here. It is hard to estimate the construction year only with the relics, but the structure of the tombs suggests that the tumuli were built the latest among the other tumuli in the Gimhae area. The structure of the tombs is very unusual and thus is consequently valuable for the study of the culture and history of the Gaya Dynasty (42-532).
