Bamnera is a village situated in Sumerpur tehsil of Pali District in Rajasthan on the Beawar- Radhanpur National Highway No. 14 and the nearest railway station is Jawai Bandh.
Bamnera is located on the bank of the Sukri River (Brahmi River), near to Dhavalgiri hill, locally known as 'Bhakri'. Bamnera is 23 km away from the Western Railway station Jawai Bandh, which was earlier known as Erinpura Road. Before entering into the Bamnera village from Sheoganj route, one has to cross a river called Fufaat. In monsoon season, this river is full of water and because of its high overflow of water, it is called Fufaat (Forcefully). Presently, there is a small bridge, called Pakki Rapat on this river.
The name Bamnera is derived from the Marwaris word 'Boman' and 'Dera' i.e. 'Bramhanera'. The word 'Boman' is derived from the Sanskrit/Hindi word Brahman and in English it is spell as Brahmin. Brahmin is one of the upper caste in Hindu religion. As on today, most of the population in this village belong to this caste and come under Audichya Gorwal Samaj which is also known as Audichya Brahmin. 'Dera' in Hindi means base or camp. Hence most of the Brahmin came in this area and settle down permanently so it become 'Bramhanera' i.e. Bamnera.
Climate is somewhat different from that of other villages in western Rajasthan. Although, basically the summer season raise the temperature up to 46-47 degree Celsius at peak Time in May–June, a large variation in temperature is found due to adjoining green and hilly areas. Winters are moderately cool during December–January lowering the mercury to 4-5 degree Celsius occasionally. Average rainfall during the months of July–October is 300 mm.
Coming to the History of Bamnera, it is actually an ancient ' Bramhanera' or Kollapur Paatan, where there was an ancient civilization developed. It is one of the important spot for the Archaeological Department of India, to study the ancient civilization in Rajasthan.There is a copper plate found on digging from Bamnera which now is kept in Shri Bangar Government Museum, located at Pali in Pali District
