Soga no Umako
Ishibutai Kofun is believed to be the tomb of Soga no Umako. Soga no Umako (蘇我 馬子, 551? - June 19, 626) was the son of Soga no Iname and a member of the powerful Soga clan of Japan. Umako conducted political reforms with Prince Shōtoku during the rules of Emperor Bidatsu and Empress Suiko and established the Soga clan's stronghold in the government by having his daughter married with members of the royal family.

As of 2006, ongoing excavations have revealed construction on the site of Fujiwara-kyō as early as 682, near the end of the reign of Emperor Temmu.
