The tumulus of Koninksem on the Roman Kassei is a Gallo-Roman burial mound in Koninksem in the Belgian municipality of Tongeren. It is located right on the Roman Kassei, an old Roman military road, called the N69, which leads from Tongeren to Oerle. The tumulus was already examined in 1747 by order of Louis XV. The hill was partially excavated in around 1850. It is now enclosed between houses. The tumulus dates from the 1st to 3rd century. The tumulus was protected as a monument in 1979.
