The graves of Soga brothers

This is a tomb commonly believed to be that of the Soga Brothers, Sukenari and Tokimune, and Sukenari's mistress, Toragozen. It is reported that they killed Suketsune Kudo at Makigari at the foot of Mt. Fuji in 1193, in relatiation for murdering their father. The size and the layout of these tombs, National Important Cultural Assets, appear to conform to that story. The engraved date of 1295 is present, and therefore this cannot be the tomb of the Sogas. Two men, who appear to be samurai, are praying.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number64‐77‐0]
