  Abstract. What is the reason for complex dynamical patterns registered from real biological neuronal networks? Noise and dynamical reconfiguring of a network (functional/dynamic connectome) were proposed as possible answers. In this case study, we report a complex dynamical pattern observed in a simple deterministic network of 25 excitatory neurons with fixed connectome. After a short initial stimulation, the network is engaged into a complex dynamics, which lasts for a long time. Eventually, with no external intervention, the dynamics comes to a periodic one with a short period. The long transient is positively checked for being chaotic. We conclude that the complex dynamics observed is the output of neural computation performed in the process of neuronal firings and spikes propagation.
