Wikipedia does it again. (be careful what you read there. It's not always accurate!) William Gilbert in 1600, a greek, coined the term electric (from the greek ELETRIK) with the discovery of the electron. Benjamin Franklin, linked lighting to electricity with his experiment in 1792 with the kite in a thunderstorm. In the early 1800's, VOLTA, an italian and the one to whom you are referring I think, established the relationship between chemicals and electricity by inventing the battery, and in 1831, Michael Farady, an Englishman, constructed the first generator, therby putting to use the discoveries previously made. Thomas Edison invented the lightbulb in 1879, putting to use electricity in what we all would term, a terrific way! So you see, there is a series of contributions to the discovery of "electricity" as we know it, but truly, the Greeks were the first to "discover" "ELECTRIK" city... by the discovery of the electron waaaaay back in the 1600's. Hope this helps..... Amateur Radio is a great way to further use electricity. Check it out.... Dave WA4BWO call sign Yep. Wikipedia does it again. (be careful what you read there.

Look it up on wikipedia, some italian guy did it before him, and did'nt get too much attention for it... He was’nt the very first to discover electromagnetism.
