Two views on the occupant

Archaeological view
An officially designated tomb at Koboshizuka in Ichinobe, Higashiomi. Kokugakuin University’s mausoleum database describes its official form as a round mound. A published photograph and transcription of the on-site sign give the eastern mound a diameter of 15 m. The cited official sources do not firmly establish its date or burial structure. The attribution to the prince is an IHA designation, distinct from archaeological identification.
Imperial Household Agency view
Managed by the IHA as the Iwasaka Tomb of Prince Ichinobe-no-Oshiha, a son of Emperor Richu and the father of Emperors Kenzo and Ninken.

Field notes

Managed as an imperial tomb; follow on-site guidance when viewing it from outside.
