About 15-16th century old Bronze statue was found in 1997, ancient pottery before 1st and 2nd century BC was found by the excavating team in 1997, in 1988; 19th century old Bronze iron-axe and elaborate wood etc. was also found. Beside these, 17th century's ManasaMangalKavya, 19th century's smallest handwritten Qur'an, the Papyrus art of Egypt (papyrus art created in Egyptian style) have been rescued from Wari-Bateshwar.
Apart from this, some of the documents of liberation war in 1971 were archived in their collections. There were descriptions of Gangabari region with its capital being the Ganga Bandar in the writings of Greco-Roman authors. HanifPathan, the initiator of the Wari-Bateshwar Excavation, assumed that that Gangabari is today’s Wari-Bateshwar.
Initially, excavation work was done for the first time in April 2000. Since then, the concept of urban feature has been ensured. By determining the date of Carb-14 test in the Netherlands, Wari-Bateshwar is the two oldest villages in the history of the subcontinent civilization. The patterns which have been found here appeared to be 2450 years old, that means 450 years before the birth of Jesus Christ. It was then the reign of the Mauryan dynasty. Then in June 2002, a second excavation endeavor was done. Without the archaeological excavation, collection of one thousand iron specimens, several thousand paginated silver coins and a large number of small-value specimens were collected from the Wari Bateshwar region. There were not so many iron markings, printed silver and silver statues collected from any other area of Bangladesh. Apart from these specially designed and unrefined wood tools, ductile protective gear, high-tin bronze neoprene pottery, glass wicker, and black cottage wire and terracotta and stone miscellaneous patterns were also found. At the beginning of medieval age, a fort was found in the name of the tallest Asam king. This type of archaeological site has been found to be located at Raingartech, Kandua, and Shonratnatala adjacent to Wari-Bateshwar. In fact, this is the site of the archaeological site in the area of Belabthana.
According to HabibullaPathan, even if there is a sign of the Neolithic era and the Maurya era, the signs of Pal era was the long lasting. But in the meantime, there was still no way to know what actually happened. According to him, the marine route of this region was in contact with either Rome or southeastern Asia. There is now a dried river on the side of the village; it was once known as Brahmaputra. Not only in the past but also recently there is a trading community based on this river. Maybe it happened in the case of Wari-Bateshwar too.
