Where was Cao Cao's tomb in the Three Kingdoms?

In Gaoling

Cao Cao's Tomb, namely Anyang Gaoling, also known as Gaoxidong Tomb, is located in Gao Xi Cave Village, Anfeng Township, Anyang City, Henan Province, at12km west of Ye Bei, the capital of Cao Cao. According to the Records of the Three Kingdoms, Cao Cao died in Luoyang in 220, and the coffin was buried on the hill west of Ximen Bao Temple in Yecheng.

On February 27th, 2009, 65438, National Cultural Heritage Administration confirmed that Gaoling, located in the south of Xigaoxue Village, Anfeng Township, Anyang City, Henan Province, was actually the tomb of Cao Cao [1]. May 20 13, Cao Cao Gaoling became the seventh batch of national key cultural relics protection units. June 20 13, Yecheng site where Cao Gaoling and Hebei Linzhang are located was shortlisted for the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" approved by National Cultural Heritage Administration and the Ministry of Finance.

But the evidence to prove the owner of the tomb is not first-hand material, and it is not a very strong proof. Therefore, many domestic scholars and experts, such as Xu, a member of the National Cultural Heritage Administration expert group, Yuan Jixi, a literary expert in Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, a doctor of history in Beijing Normal University, and Ni, a scholar of tomb robbery in China, hold controversial opinions on whether it is the tomb of Cao Cao.
