Picture on back cover (Dai-sen Kofun)
The picture on back cover is not an accelerator facility in Japan. It is a tomb (mausoleum) of an Emperor (said to be of the Emperor Nintoku) in the mid-5th century.
Although its height is not impressive (35 m), its base size (844m x 668m) is far larger than the largest pyramid of Egypt. (King Khufu's (Cheops) : 230m x 230m, 147m high)
This mausoleum is near Osaka where ICHEP2000 will be held. (20 minutes from the symposium site)
