The Anyang funerary bed (Chinese: 安阳北齐石棺), also known locally as the Bed of Ts'ao Ts'ao (from the Chinese hero Cao Cao), is a Chinese funerary couch belonging to a Sogdian merchant and official active in China in the 6th century CE. The tomb was discovered in 1911,[4] and the components of the funerary bed were dispersed among various museums in the world after being offered on the art market.[2][5] It is thought the funerary bed was excavated in Anyang (ancient Zhangdefu), capital of the Northern Qi dynasty.[5] It is stylically dated to the Northern Qi dynasty (550–577 CE).
