The term 'Cowhand's Bed' is a colloquialism for a BUNK, which is a type of bed commonly used in dormitories, prisons, and other places where space is limited. It is usually a simple frame of metal or wood with a mattress on top, and often two bunks are stacked one above the other. The term 'Cowhand's Bed' is derived from the fact that cowhands, or ranch hands, often slept in bunks while working on ranches in the American West.
