Let n ≥ 2 be an integer. Let P be the set of all integers in [1,n + 1] and let σ be a cyclic permutation on P. Assume that f is the linearisation of σ on P. Then we show that f has rational Artin-Mazur zeta function which is closely related to the characteristic polynomial of some n × n matrix with entries either zero or one. Some examples of non-conjugate maps with the same Artin-Mazur zeta function are also given.
