المستخلص: Animal depictions are abundant in visual records in the ancient Egyptian civilization. Monkeys were prominent animals in ancient Egypt not only because they were considered sacred animals but also because they were treated as pets or extensively trained animals. Moreover, they were highly involved in the daily lives of ancient Egyptians. Even though some animals in ancient Egypt only adhered to a ceremonial role, others were regarded as pets, guards and assets used for barter. The duality and flexibility of the monkey’s role are evidently portrayed in the wall depictions. This study focuses on the nonreligious scenes of the monkeys and classifies the mundane life scenes of the monkeys’ depictions into main categories. The scenes are collected from various tombs from the Old, Middle and New Kingdoms (more than fifty tombs). The methodology of this research is based on both descriptive data and thorough analysis to accomplish the paper’s objectives. The result of this study reveals that the representation of monkeys on the daily life scene can be classified into five categories which are: pets, natural animal behaviors, trained intelligent animals, with attendants and lastly, depictions of monkeys in comic representations. Sometimes a certain representation may be regarded as a mixture of two categories such as a pet and comic or an animal behaviour and a pet.
