In 1937 (Shōwa 12), the Nara Regional Courts decided that the many objects excavated from tumuli (kofun) in the northern part of Nara prefecture and the southern part of Kyoto prefecture should go to the Nara National Museum. Recent study has revealed that this large group of treasures that entered the collection as a single donation is comprised of objects from various kofun across Kyoto, Nara, and Osaka prefectures.
