 Yayoi stone heaps found in Kagawa   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
TAKAMATSU (Kyodo) Archaeologists in Kagawa Prefecture have found 22 stone heaps dating back to the second century B.C. that may help research on mounded burials predating Kofun period tumult, the Center for Archaeological Operations said Saturday.
Yayoi mound burials were discovered previously at the Hagiwara site in Naruto, Tokushima Prefecture, and at two other locations in Shikoku, but all three can be traced only to the late Yayoi period of the third century, making the Narishige find among Japan's oldest.
Officials said that since some of the clusters resemble the keyhole-shaped tumuli for which the Kofun period (300-710) is named, the stone heaps may provide clues to the evolution of the burial tradition between the periods of Japanese prehistory.
