The article presents the anthropological description skeletons of the Bell Beaker Culture inhabitants that were discovered on the Site no. 6 in Pelczyska. The preserved fragments of skeletons allow to assess that in the feature 12/2005 there was buried a child whose age at death was infans I (5-6 years old), in the feature 13/2005 a child whose age at death was infans I (about 2 years old) and in the feature 25/2004 - a child whose age death was infans I (about 1 year old). Skulls of these individuals had not yet achieved their final dimensions so it is difficult to compare them with other Neolith and Early Bronze Age populations inhabiting the territory of Poland.
