Agrawala (1982) also reported some more pre-historic copper items which might have been made, following the Ganeshwar tradition: two long copper celts from Sabania, and copper arrow fragments from Pugal in the Bikaner district, six heavy 28 cm bar celts from Nandlalpura, district Jaipur, one heavy bar celt from Ekalasimgha, district Ajmer etc. Similar objects from Padliya, Jhadol, Elana and other sites in south Rajasthan might have originated from Ganeshwar or the contemporary site of Bagor which developed chalcolithic tradition around 2800 BC. Later we would discuss the Ahar chalcolithic tradition (2200 BC onwards) which probably started with Bagor practice as the example.
