Book excerpt: After briefly studying hydraulics in Rome, the young Belzoni spent several years leading a vagabond existence and eventually ended up in London as a professional muscleman. Traveling with a troupe of entertainers, Belzoni was on his way to Constantinople when he learned there was a need for hydraulic engineers in Egypt. While there, he befriended the British consul, who eventually offered him a position working in archaeology for the British government. Belzoni's discoveries, many of which are now housed in the British Museum, made him a celebrity in England. Over time his interest turned from the recovery of individual objects to the excavation and recording of monuments. Upon his return to Europe in 1819, Belzoni wrote of his archaeological discoveries in his "Narrative of the Operations and Recent Discoveries within the Pyramids," which was published along with a set of forty-four images that he faithfully copied from various Egyptian tombs. The book was a tremendous success and was soon translated into French and Italian as well as edited into a smaller edition aimed at a more popular audience. -- MMA website.

This book was released on 2017-09-09 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Giovanni Belzoni proffered this work shyly, explaining that he hoped we would gain from the fidelity of his account. Its truthfulness and its unique capacity to bring us into close proximity with the history of the region. Do not be fooled by his claim that the work is inelegant however. Living in Thebes, the author was able to discern more about the famous tombs than many Europeans of his time. He observed, pried and sweet talked the local population into allowing him to see more than empty tombs and swiftly stashed shovels. He watched the comings and goings from his windows and records social unrest, quarantines and pads through hookah dens and coffee houses. Despite the danger and disease, we defy the reader not to yearn to join him. Whilst this work has unquestionable historical merit, as a particular kind of primary source, it retains a character and charm that a mere recounting of the facts could not hope to convey. We peek into harems, peer through gates and witness fascinating anthropological events. We see matters of shifting etiquette across the region, attitudes to outsiders, gift customs, marital traditions, examples of defiance and acclimatisation. The 'Narrative of the Operations and Recent Discoveries within the Pyramids, Temples, Tombs, and Excavations, in Egypt and Nubia' is the story of gentleman archeologist and his observations. Those with any love for biography, tales of long ago and far ago, history, anthropology or the poetry of a description of the sunrise can never be immune to this charming book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book attempts to re-think the purpose of the Great Pyramid of the Giza Plateau which are commonly thought to be the tombs of Pharaohs. The first part examines the Great Pyramid’s architectural features, construction details, and internal structure, referencing experts and historical figures such as Professor WM Flinders Petrie, Colonel Howard Vyse, Piazzi Smyth, Herodotus, Irving Finkel, brothers John and Morton Edgar, Jimmy Dunn, Giovanni Battista Caviglia, Giovanni Battista Belzoni, and many others. This portion of the book closely examines peculiarities of the internal floorplan of the Great Pyramid and signs of destruction found in its internal rooms and passageways. In the second part of the book, the author attempts to re-interpret ancient Sumerian scripts and unexpectedly finds Sumerian names for the apartments and the passageways of the Great Pyramid - including descriptions and dimensions - which have not yet been noted in any historical document. The Sumerian chronicles contain not only a description of the events that caused destruction inside the Great Pyramid, traces of which were discovered by modern researchers and described in the first part of the book, but also the process of building the Great Pyramid itself! The author finds symbols of the internal structure of the Great Pyramid reflected in other archaeological artifacts such as The Greenstone Seal Of Adda. Additionally, he finds details in the description of the Hanging Gardens of Babylon considering the construction and functionality of the Grand Gallery. He discovers an unexpected relationship between the Great Pyramid and it’s chambers and the images of Egyptian gods such as Isis, Serapis, Geb, Nut, Nephtys, and others. The book presents the reader with an entirely new understanding of images of the ancient gods which symbolically describe the functionality of the Great Pyramid. It also highlights the Great Pyramid’s central role in the development of human civilization. Although this book uses technical terms and references ancient Sumerian texts, it is written in order to be accessible to the common reader.
