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.

The Poznan Radiocarbon Laboratory has made 2 radiocarbon dating measurements for graves 2 and 3 from Barrow I in Kolosy, district of Kazimierza Wielka. Human bones from these graves were selected for the radiocarbon dating as 'materials representing the Corded Ware culture' (CWC). However, the measurements placed the bones in the Funnel Beaker culture (FBC) instead. The new dating has provided a pretext for reconsidering the stratigraphical situation of the burial mound in Kolosy. There are also other reasons to link Graves 2 and 3 to the FBC and to assume that the mound was built as early as in the 4th millennium BC. The most important of these reasons are the constructions of graves and the position of the skeletons. If Graves 2 and 3 are correctly linked to the FBC, no CWC feature has been discovered under the mound in Kolosy. The presence of a FBC barrow in Kolosy may be regarded as probable. Nevertheless, another possibility should be taken into account: radiocarbon dated Graves 2 and 3 could have been a part (or perhaps the 'whole') of a flat FBC cemetery that was accidentally covered later with a CWC embankment. The central barrow grave would then have been entirely destroyed by the modern digs. Such a development, though less convincing, is also possible.

The paper focused on the Early Iron Age cemeteries from Northeast Transdanubia. Some research results have already been published, especially concerning the burial mound and flat cemetery of Süttő and the flat cemeteries of Tatabánya-Dózsakert and Tatabánya-Alsó Vasútállomás. Some typical features of the burial customs are observed in these sites and also compared the results with those from the narrower area of Transdanubia and with some cemeteries of the East-Hallstatt cultural unit. The main aim – besides publishing the data – was to highlight the similarities between the burial customs of the two main types of the Early Iron Age burials, the tumuli and the flat cemeteries and also to call the attention to the differences between the elements of the rite.
