Companion mound - Companion

Japanese: 陪冢 - ばいちょう
Companion mound - Companion
Originally, the tombs were those of close relatives or vassals who were buried after the death of their master, but in general, they refer to small tombs located around large tombs such as the Emperor Nintoku's Mausoleum (Daisen Tomb). It is unclear whether they were subordinate to the Emperor in the original sense of the word. There are many examples where only utensils were buried there.
