[en] Report about a quick survey in Magasin 25 at Deir el-Medina which allowed to locate and gather a total of 27 painted limestonefigurines belonging to the same corpus, i. e. ‘figurines depicting monkeys imitating human activities’, such as playing music or driving a chariot. Most of those figurines are known thanks to Bernard Bruyère’s notebooks and publications. All of them have been documented in 2021. The 'monkeys driving chariots' subcorpus will be published in details in a future article.
