Presents the life story of Giovanni Belzoni - engineer, barber, monk, actor and circus strongman (where he earned his title, 'The Great Belzoni'), who became one of the giants of 19th century Egyptian archaeology. He was the first person to penetrate the heart of the second pyramid at Giza and the first European to visit the oasis of Siwah.
