Anauk-pet-lun or Anauk-bak-lun ( , lit. "King who died in the West"; 21 January 1578 – 9 July 1628), also called Prāsāda thong klod kæw (พระเจ้าปราสาททองกลดแก้ว) in Mon-thai chronicles, was the sixth king of Taungoo Burma and was largely responsible for restoring the kingdom after it collapsed at the end of the 16th century. In his 22-year reign from 1606 to 1628, Anaukpetlun completed the reunification efforts begun by his father, King Nyaungyan. Having inherited a partial kingdom comprising mainly Upper Burma and the Shan States from his father, Anaukpetlun went on to reconquer Lan Na in the east, and in the south, Lower Burma from rival Burmese factions and the Portuguese, as well as the Upper Tenasserim from the Ayutthaya Kingdom. The kingdom was known as the Restored Taungoo Kingdom or Nyaungyan Dynasty.
