This paper traces different ways of controlling and treating donkeys whether riding or loading, as an important beast of burden in ancient Egypt. These ways of control include; sticks, tugging tail/leg, and the headlock. Most of these illustrations date back to the Old Kingdom, this may be due to the abundance of agriculture scenes which cover great spaces of the wall of these tombs. Also, the paper deals with the size and the shape of the loads which he carries. It deals also with cases of abusing the animal and the consequences which led sometimes to its death.
