500 |a A line-for-line reprint of the 1st ed. (1820) except that the original preface is printed on 4 pages rather than 5, followed by "Preface to the second edition" (gathering a, paged [v]-xi [xii, blank]). The table of contents includes the appendix and remarks on the plates, omitted in the contents of the 1st ed., not all copies of which include this material. Printer's statement on verso of half title, repeated on p. [534]. "Short account of the women of Egypt, Nubia, and Syria: by Mrs. Belzoni": p. [441]-483. Called "Mrs. Belzoni's trifling account of the women of Egypt, Nubia, and Syria" in 1st ed. "Appendix, containing an explanation of some of the principal hieroglyphics: extracted from the article Egypt, in the supplement of the Encyclopaedia Britannica: with additional notes": p. [485]-524; "Remarks on Mr. Belzoni's plates": p. [525]-533. Both by Thomas Young. The plates were issued under title: Plates illustrative of the researches and operations of G. Belzoni in Egypt and Nubia. London : J. Murray, 1820. These were eventually supplemented by: Six new plates illustrative of the researches and operations of G. Belzoni... London : J. Murray, 1822. Collation: 4to. [A]⁴ a⁴ b⁴(-b1) c² B-3U⁴ 3X⁴(-3X4) 3Y⁴ [$2 (-c2) signed]; 280 leaves, pp. [i-v] vi-viii, chi[v] vi-xi [xii], [xi] xii-xix [xx], [1] 2-139 [140-141] 142-483 [484-487] 488-524 [525] 526-533 [534]. Notes: 1) The quarto format is ascertainable from the watermark ("1820/G" at the corner of the sheet), which occurs once per gathering. 2) It is not certain why gathering 3X is truncated, rather than 3Y as in the 1st ed.: the text and pagination are continuous.
