Where was the capital of japan built on yamato plain and what influenced the design of the city?

Hello!

Yamato was a province settled in Kina, which today is the Nara Prefecture, in Honshu and Wikigami was its capital in Katsujo District (northeastern Gose),  but later on, it was moved to Takaichi District. This period is called the Tumulus, or Tomb period since the city was characterized by the presence of burial mounds, a common archeological feature made of stone. These burial mounds, called Kofun in Japanise, were key-hole shaped stones that were spread throughout the country. It is believed that these key-hole Kofun were the evidence of the the spreading of culture and Yamato's court expansion.
