A historically important village, Gambissara was founded by Bunasa Tunkara. It was split in two by the border drawn as a result of the Anglo-French Convention of 1889. The French side subsequently emptied as the villagers fled more onerous tax and forced labor demands there.{{cite thesis |last=Glovsky |first=David |date=2020 |title=Belonging beyond boundaries : constructing a transnational community in a West African borderland |url=https://doi.org/doi:10.25335/4hjk-3y48 |type=PhD |chapter= |publisher= Michigan State University|docket= |oclc= |access-date=28 July 2023|page=199|doi=10.25335/4hjk-3y48 }}
