*''Japanese'': 藤ノ木古墳 ''(Fujinoki kofun)''

Fujinoki kofun is a 6th centurry ''[[kofun]]'' burial mound in [[Ikaruga]], [[Nara prefecture]]. A number of items excavated from the site, including gilt bronze horse fittings, are among the best-preserved examples of their respective types from this period; rather than being oxidized green and deformed by age, many still display intricate gilded designs and a bright shine. Designated [[National Treasures]], these objects are now held at the [[Archaeological Institute of Kashihara]].
