摘要
This article analyses faunal remains of the Longshan period unearthed from the 1990 excavation at the Kangjia site in Lintong, Shaanxi. It attempts to reconstruct environmental conditions, subsistence economy, ritual activities, regional interaction, and social organisation. High percentage of bones from water buffalo, sheep or goat indicates regional interactions in economic aspect; turtle shells used in ritual context suggest the existence of long-distance exchange of ritual paraphernalia; certain depositional process of a large quantity of animal bones implies that ritual feasting may have become a part of political strategy then.
