陪塚（ばいちょう・171号墳）
Mesahozuka Kofun and Jury Mound (Mound No. 171) in the Saitobaru Kofun Tumulus Group, Miyazaki Prefecture

木花開耶姫（このはなさくやひめ）とされている。
The burial candidate for the Mesahozuka burial mound is believed to be Princess Konoha-Sakuya by the Imperial Household Agency.
一方女狭穂塚古墳は仲津山古墳
（応神天皇皇后の仲姫命の陵・古市古墳群・全長290ｍ・高さ26.2）を
元に築造されていることから、被葬者を
仁徳天皇妃の日向髪長媛（ひむかのかみながひめ）とする説がある。
On the other hand, the Onna-Sahozuka burial mound was built based on the Nakatsuyama burial mound (the second largest in the Furuichi burial mound group, 290 m in length and 26.2 m in height, the tomb of Nakahime-no-mikoto, the empress of Emperor Ojin), and there is a theory that the burial victim was Himuka-no-Kaminagahime, the wife of Emperor Nintoku.

The burial facilities of the main part are not clear.

This is a rare square mound in the Saitobaru Kofun Tumulus Group, built in two stages with a side of 25 m and a height of 4.5 m.
The jury mound of the Nakatsuyama burial mound, which was the basis for the Mesahotsuka burial mound, is also a square burial mound, and its connection to the Mesaahotsuka burial mound has been pointed out.

There are moats on three sides of the mound, and one side is in contact with the double circumferential ditch of the Mesahozuka tumulus.
