In the area of loess uplands in Krakow region, particularly in the light of recent discoveries preceding big road investments, the size and organization of settlements of the Mierzanowice culture seem to be much diversified. The analysis of Mierzanowice culture settlements examined on a large scale shows a great diversity of forms in settlement organization lacking one specific spatial layout pattern. Those differences are not dependent on chronology. The sizes of settlements are diversified – from single farmsteads to organized multi-farmstead structures. Farmsteads can be represented not only by one cellar/pit but also by a few or dozen of objects.
