The Tomb of the Monkey is located in the Necropolis of Poggio Renzo, about 4 kilometres from the city of Chiusi. It dates to 480-470 B.C. and was discovered by Alessandro Francois in March 1846. It takes its name from a monkey painted on the walls of the central chamber of the tomb. This tomb has been related to other similar tombs in Tarquinia, where paintings of games and funeral dances are found, however it lacks any representation of banquets.
