Three jars with perforated bases of the same shape were found in the Fudo burial mound. These perforated jars have a thick neck and 14 small holes drilled in a line in the center of the neck. These are rare examples of earthenware jars with mounts, and were probably copied from Sue ware long-necked jars with mounts for burial in kofun tombs.
