Burial rituals take place in the following order: ascend to the top of the front square via a corner (on either the right or left of the frontal surface of the square front), descend toward the rounded rear, go up the ryuki shado (a slope built to make it easier to climb to the rounded rear), and enter the burial pit through a horiwari bodo (a path to the stone chamber).
埋葬祭祀は、隅角（前方部の前面の左右のどちらか）から前方部頂へ登り、そこから後円部に向かって降りていき、隆起斜道（後円部へ登りやすくした斜面）を登り、掘割墓道（石室への道）を経て墓壙に入る。
