Based on archeological finds, bows and arrows, axes and spears were used in Tibetan primitive society, and, on the stone tombs in the Northern Tibetan plateau and middle Tibet, there are also three-edge arrowheads, leaf-shaped iron arrowheads with decorated patterns of horse, bear, bird and monkey.

Obviously, during the reign of Gnya' khfi btsan po, Tibetan society had entered the patriarchal clan commune period, which was a period when the tribal chieftain handed on his ruling position to his son and the hereditary system had already formed. Primitive hygiene in the tribal groups appeared during the Neolithic age. The inhabited house showed the tribes had some concept of basic hygiene. In view of the idea based on TCM history, the art of acupuncture is evolved on the basis of stone tools, such as Xu Shen's Shuo wen fie zi (An Analytical Dictionary of Chinese Characters) stating that "bian (stone knife) is used in the treatment of disorders with stone," it is reasonable to infer that the art of needling and bloodletting (still practiced today) appeared during the Neolithic Age in Tibet. Moxibustion therapy, meanwhile, is derived from the application of fare. It is, again, reasonable to draw the conclusion that people living in the snow-covered land were even more in need of the warmth brought by fire than the people living in plain areas. It can be certain that Tibetan medicine has a relatively independent origin of moxibustion therapy z. The Jiu fa can juan (Remained Scrolls of Moxibustion), written in archaic Tibetan medicine and unearthed in Dunhuang, Gansu, recommends moxibustion be applied for treatment of various diseases. This is an early record of the use of moxibustion therapy.
