Abstract: In 2012, six species of livestock bones, including Equus caballus, Bos taurus, Capra hircus, Gallus gallus domesticus, Canis familiaris and Sus domestica of Spring and Autumn period, were unearthed from the Lanjiazhai site in Wushan Mountain. It is the only ancient culture site that six kinds of domestic animal bones in the pre-Qin period in the Three Gorges area were discovered at present. Wild animals were the main meat resources for people then, so it is difficult that domestic animal bones are discovered in early stage historical period in the Three Gorges area. Some major species of these domestic animals from the Lanjiazhai site, provide important materials for us to analyze and study the developmental process of economy model, behavior pattern and regional culture, etc. Equus caballus and Bos Taurus bones among them are the earliest domestic animals in the Three Gorges area, and their findings indicate that there existed some collisions, communications and integrations of various regional cultures then.
