The invention relates to the technical field of high-entropy ceramic materials, in particular to layered high-entropy double-boron carbide ceramic powder and a preparation method thereof. The chemical formula of layered high-entropy double-boron carbide in the layered high-entropy double-boron carbide ceramic powder is REB2C2, wherein RE is at least three different elements selected from Y, Ce, Gd, Dy and Er, and the molar ratio of each of the elements is 1. The preparation method comprises the following steps: ball-milling and mixing at least three metal oxides, a boron source and a carbon source, compacting the uniformly mixed powder to obtain a densified green body, sintering the green body at high temperature to obtain a layered high-entropy double-boron carbide block material, and finally, carrying out crushing and grinding to obtain the layered high-entropy double-boron carbide powder. The single-phase high-entropy double-boron carbide ceramic powder with uniform components can be synthesized by taking the metal oxides as raw materials and adopting a carbon/boron thermal reduction method; and the method is simple in preparation process, easy to control the reaction process, free of impurity introduction, low in product preparation cost and suitable for batch production.
