The recent dates for samples from Ināmgāon excavation show that the Jorwe Culture can now be dated to c. 1500-1000 BC, because four dates from Inamgaon are before 1400 BC whereas a majority of them fall between 1400-1200 BC which appears to be the peak period of the culture. There is a late Jorwe phase at Inamgaon, whose beginning may be placed to 600 BC. (Agarwal and Chakrabarti, 1979: 250-60)
