The Bactrian camel, capable of carrying heavy loads and enduring extremes of heat and cold, was an essential means of transport along the Central Asian routes linking northern China with the Western Regions. Its appearance in Northern Wei tomb sculpture reflects the increasing movement of foreign merchants, goods and, presumably, Buddhist missionaries along these routes. Camel figures became an established element of Northern Wei funerary assemblages, where they are typically depicted as pack animals carrying saddles, baskets or other loads. As (明器), such figures served a funerary purpose, providing the deceased with transport and access to the exotic goods associated with elite life.
See a related pottery model of a standing camel, Northern Wei dynasty, in the Princeton University Art Museum (acc.no.y1950-93); see also another related pottery model of a camel, mid to late 6th century, in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York (acc.no.28.121).
See also a painted pottery figure of a laden camel, Northern Wei dynasty, which was sold at Christie's New York, 13 September 2019, lot 845.
