Regarding a legend that 'It came to be called Ishibutai (a stone stage) for the fact that a fox in the shape of woman danced on the Kofun,' Yoshinori ABOSHI who was born and brought up near the Kofun said he had never heard such a story and understood it was written in recent years. |
「狐が女の姿に化けて古墳の上で踊ったことから石舞台と名付けられた」という伝説については、古墳のすぐそばで生まれ育った網干善教は、そのような話を自分は聞いたことがなく近年に創作された話であろう、としている。 |
