Bullo-dong Tomb Park (불로동 고분군) is Historic Site #262, which is located in Dong-gu, Daegu, South Korea. The area consists of a number of foothills that have over 200 ancient tombs spread out across the hills. Most of the earthen mounds measure 15-20 meters in diameter and are 4 meters high. These tombs were reportedly built in the 4th or 5th century, during the Three Kingdoms Period (37 B.C.- 935 A.D.). The tombs are of the aboriginal ruling powers of the region, from that time.
