Part 1 of a 3-part Entry about Belzoni.

Crumbs this is detailed...

"Giovanni Battista [...] never learned to spell" - does this mean that he was literate but couldn't spell?

"The boy was entranced by this world outside the city he knew, and was determined to see more of it, so a couple of days later, he ran away from home, along with Antonio, aged nine." - I'm sure you could do without some of those commas.

electricity (known as 'Galvanism') --> electricity (known then as 'Galvanism')

"It was in a temple on the West Bank"
"Belzoni retired and shifted his attention to the west bank."
- West Bank or west bank?

I have nothing to add, I read all this from Gnomon's journal
