The excavation of this late Mesolithic site was done by Virendra Nath Mishra and Vasant Shinde, scholars of Deccan College, in 1960s and 1970s. They found the three stages of the pre-Harappan settlements which were 4480-3285 BC, 2765-500 BC and 500 BC to 400 AD, making it one of the oldest civilizations in Rajasthan. During the excavation, it was evident that the nomadic pastoralists of Bagore were indulged in domestication of cattle, goats and sheep in early 5000-3000 BC.

In 1959-60, it was excavated for the first time by a team under the supervision of B. B. Lal of the Archaeological Survey of India. Recently, from 1999-2005 it was re-excavated by a team from Deccan College of Pune, India and the University of Pennsylvania. The site appears to have been occupied from 3000-1700 BC.

The workshops acknowledged that occupants were indulged in small-scale craft production. Further scrutiny of the area revealed that the inhabitants used to practice agriculture along with the livestock herding.
