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.

Three graves of the Bell Beaker culture recorded at the multicultural Site 6 in Pelczyska in 2004-2005, have a great scientific value to research into the Late Neolithic in Malopolska (Lesser Poland). Exploration uncovered graves from the many periods of the Neolithic, Bronze Age, pre-Roman and Roman period. The finds of the Bell Beaker culture represent the first cemetery that may undoubtedly be attributed to that culture on the lower Nida River, region abounding in other finds dated to the Late Neolithic and the Early Bronze Ages. The three graves in Pelczyska contained poorly preserved remains of single children's burials, none of them in the anatomical arrangement. Two features yielded a set of pottery consisting of a bowl and a cup. One radiocarbon measurement carried out for grave 12/2004 has dated a sample of human bone from the grave to i.e. 2340-2200 BC. The Bell Beakers graves were younger than materials from the late phase of the Kraków-Sandomierz Corded Ware group, while being chronologically close to cemeteries of the oldest phase of the Mierzanowice culture.
