This book was released on 1821 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Belzoni was one of the first and foremost archeologists of Egypt; he led several important archaeological excavations from 1815 to 1819, during which time he opened one of the two Great Pyramids at Giza, and entered (for the first time) several Tombs of the Kings at Thebes (including that of Seti I). He opened the temple of Ybsambul, then journeyed to the Red Sea in search of the city of Berenice, and afterward to the oasis of Jupiter Ammon. Upon his return to England he held an exhibition of antiquities -- and full-scale models -- at the Egyptian Hall, Piccadilly, which ran from 1821-1822 and was so successful that it was also shown in Paris and St. Petersburg."--Abebooks website
