The Blonde d'Aquitaine (aka Aquitaine Blond; La race Blonde d'Aquitaine in French) was founded on the following three ancient breeds:

• the Garonnais (the most important and which may also have a relationship to the Devon due to trade)
• the Quersey (which had been crossbred with the Durham/Shorthorn and the Limousin)
• the Pyrenean Blond (a combination of three local strains and several varieties - of which only the Lourdais and the Béarnais have survived and were not absorbed)
