Remarkable disproportion of documented settlements and standard burial grounds on the whole territory of the Baden culture occurrence is typical for the culture bearers. The number of skeletons in conventional or unusual positions mostly with no charities at settlement pits found during large-scale excavations of Baden culture settlements, however, is increasing. Finding circumstances of graves at Komjatice, Nitra and Sládkovičovo unambiguously proved existence of more-less contemporary settlements in their vicinity, and so we can classify them to the category of burials in settlement pits. On the contrary, we can consider the find units from Hul, Kmeťovo, Marcelová or Bešeňová as isolated graves. They included a complete vessel working as a grave addition - charity. We assume the studied way of burying had been preferred much frequently by the Baden culture bearers than in other Aeneolithic populations. At the same time it can help us partially answering the reason of remarkable deficit of graves in comparison with settlement finds of the culture under study.
