English summary: This twelfth issue of the Catalogue des ostraca hieratiques non litteraires de Deir el-Medineh includes the photography, the fac-simile, the hieroglyphic transcription, the transliteration and the annotated translation of 130 ostraca originating from the site and deposited at the Ifao for their study. These documents are representative of the various categories that one usually uses to classify the documentary ostraca: institutional and private documents and sub-categories within these two main categories (journals, supplies of commodities, letters, depositions, etc.). Some exceptional specimens – both in scale and in contents – are worth mentioning, such as a document resulting from the combination of 30 fragments of the same vessel, as well as some documents, in a tabular form, listing the details of the tributes brought in kind by a large number of people (mainly women) for the organisation of communal banquets. It is fitting to stress how the growing accessibility to infra-red photography or to the new digital image enhancing technologies facilitates the reading of texts that were almost inaccessible hitherto. French description: Ce douzieme fascicule du Catalogue des ostraca hieratiques non litteraires de Deir el-Medineh comprend la photographie, le fac-simile, la transcription hieroglyphique, la translitteration et la traduction commentee de 130 ostraca provenant du site et deposes pour etude a l’Ifao. Ces documents sont representatifs des diverses categories dans lesquelles on range traditionnellement les ostraca documentaires?: documents institutionnels et prives et subdivisions de ces deux grandes categories (journaux, distributions de biens, lettres, depositions, etc.). On remarque quelques specimens exceptionnels, tant par la forme que par le contenu, comme un document reconstitue a partir de 30 fragments differents d’un meme vase, ou des documents enregistrant, sous forme de liste nominative, la contribution en nature apportee par un grand nombre de personnes (en majorite des femmes) a l’organisation de banquets communautaires. On notera que l’accessibilite toujours plus grande de la photographie infra-rouge et des nouvelles technologies de manipulation numerique de l’image a aide a la lecture de textes qu’on ne dechiffrait jusque-la que tres difficilement.
