Five graves of Corded Ware culture at Pelczyska were discovered during excavations carried out by an expedition from the Institute of Archaeology at the Warsaw University, headed by Marcin Rudnicki. The features have yielded inventory typical of Corded Ware finds from western Malopolska. On the basis of the grave goods, features 21/2004, 32/2002 and 50/2002 should be linked with phase II (or perhaps subphase IIIA) of the mentioned culture, i.e. with the older period of the Krakow-Sandomierz group. Features 50/2004 and 54/2004, containing flowerpot-shaped beakers, seem to be related to the younger horizon of this group. The arrangement of the niche graves suggests that they surrounded a circular mound (which wasn't discovered). Site 6 in Pelczyska proves to be of much interest, due both to its stratigraphic arrangement and its grave inventories.

The analyzed skeletal bones of the Corded Ware Culture were unearthed by Marcin Rudnicki during surveys at the site nr 6 in Pelczyska, between 2002 and 2004. The material was examined in accordance with the applicable anthropological standards and anatomic bone descriptions. The age of the deceased at the moment of death was established upon a complex, multi-feature analysis of changes that occurred in individual morphological features of bones and teeth. After having combined the bones from the studied complexes the remains of eight individuals were given anthropological description. Half of individuals had deceased in their mature age (adultus-maturus), while the children in their early childhood (infans I). As far as the mature individuals are concerned, two sets of the bone remains indicated the presence of men, whereas the remaining two were of typically female character. Due to the not entirely completed development processes, and consequently, morphological ambiguity of the bones, the sex of the infants was not established.
