The anthropological analysis was performed on skeletons of the Corded Ware culture and the Trzciniec culture, discovered in the mound from Gabultów. In a central grave it has been established that the fragmentarily preserved remnants belonged to an individual of the Adultus age, of indeterminate sex. In a niche grave there were buried three individuals: in the centre of the niche laid down the skeleton of the Maturus age, most probably a male of the intravital body height ca. 166 cm. The remnants that were laid on the back, the head being orientated northward belonged to an individual of the infans I/II age (6-7-year-old), of indeterminate sex and the remnants that have the head orientated southward belonged to an individual of the infans I age (3-4-year-old), of indeterminate sex. In a grave of the Trzciniec culture (feature 4) there survived bone fragments of an adult individual of indeterminate sex and in feature 5 the remnants belonged to an individual of the Juvenis age, of indeterminate sex.
