Objectivity and Subjectivity in Conservation-Restoration: Between Scientific Method and Human Interpretation
type: item
description: The question of objectivity in conservation-restoration has accompanied the discipline since its emergence as a distinct field of study. Conservation-restoration presents itself as a profession grounded in science, relying on material analysis, historical research, and ethical guidelines to preserve cultural heritage. At the same time, every intervention requires human judgment, raising the question of whether complete objectivity is truly possible.

A Social Psychologist, Guided by Attribution Theory, Explores the Components and Structure of Some Myths
type: item
description: Two prevalent motivation domains, help giving and achievement striving, portrayed respectively in The Cinderella Myth and The Little Engine Who Could, have been central to the experimental testing of attribution theory. In this article, I explore the relation between these myths and attribution theory and suggest that they provide speculative evidence for the universality of that conception. Specifically, The Cinderella Myth depicts the hypothesized relation between uncontrollable causality (an orphan with an evil family) and help giving, while The Litle Engine Who Could captures the relation between controllable causality (effort) and achievement striving. In addition, the emotions of sympathy and anger are proposed as mediators between attribution and action.

Who Are Our Gypsy Neighbors? A Metamodern Reassessment
type: item
description: This essay revisits and substantially expands the author’s 1972 pamphlet “Who Are Our Gypsy Neighbors?” originally prepared for the Los Angeles County Commission on Human Relations. Adopting a metamodern scholarly stance — one that oscillates between modernist sincerity and postmodern self-awareness — the reassessment situates more than half a century of Romani-American scholarship within evolving frameworks of methodology, ethics, and self-representation. It offers a comparative intellectual portrait of four foundational scholars — David J. Nemeth, Matt and Sheila Salo, Anne Sutherland, and Marlene Sway — whose fieldwork-based monographs defined the contours of American Romani studies between the 1970s and 1990s. It then integrates Carol Miller’s memoir-ethnography Lola’s Luck (2009) as a bridge toward more reflexive and intimate modes of ethnographic practice. The essay concludes by arguing for a metamodern Romani studies that centers Romani voices, holds sincerity and critique in productive tension, and treats scholarly engagement as an ongoing conversation rather than a settled description.

The Impact of New Media E-Commerce Channels on Farm Household Income from An Internet Perspective
type: item
description: Under the Internet context, the integrated development of new media technology and rural e-commerce provides both technical tools and practical pathways for increasing farmers’ income. Focusing on new media e-commerce channels, this study uses data from the 2020 China Rural Revitalization Survey (CRRS) to empirically analyze the effect of new media e-commerce on farm household income. The results show that, first, the use of new media e-commerce significantly increases rural household income, and Internet development moderates the income-enhancing effect of new media; that is, as the Internet becomes more widely available and used, new media e-commerce can be adopted by more farm households and contribute to their income growth. Second, transaction channels based on opening stores on platforms, short-video platform formats, and pro-agricultural intermediary links are more conducive to strengthening the income-enhancing effect of new media e-commerce. Third, new media e-commerce channels with stronger interaction can promote farm household income more significantly through media interaction functions. This study therefore provides policy evidence for strengthening the promotion of new media channels in rural areas and for promoting the integrated and mutually reinforcing development of farm household income growth and new media.

Revolutionary Newport, Rhode Island by John Fitzhugh Millar, 2026
type: item
description: The Reverend John Clarke (1609-1676) Baptist Minister For generations, Rhode Islanders have been told that their colony/state had been founded by Roger Williams in 1636, and that Williams had first promulgated the idea of complete freedom of religion, including freedom to have no religions at all. Although this is not the place to discuss the matter fully, I do want to set forth a correction: the first permanent English settlers in Rhode Island arrived in 1634, led by Episcopal priest, the Reverend William Blackstone. Blackstone had been booted out of Weymouth, Massachusetts for religious reasons by the so called Pilgrim Fathers in 1623. At that point, he purchased from Indians the Shawmut Peninsula. Seven years later, he welcomed John Winthrop and his hundreds of Congregationalist settlers to his little town, which he renamed Boston at Winthrop’s request. Using force majeure, Winthrop ordered all the Episcopalians to depart for religious reasons in 1634 (the Boston Common had been Blackstone’s farm). Blackstone and his followers were farming the Providence area in 1636, when Williams arrived with the idea of making the area a Baptist colony. Blackstone told him that Baptists were welcome to settle, as long as they agreed to complete freedom of religion. It is important to state where the revolutionary idea of religious freedom in Rhode Island came from, before John Clarke carried the idea to its next step.

Investigating Linguistic Boundaries: The Impact of English-Arabic Code-Mixing Among Psychology Students in Egypt
type: item
description: Code-mixing occurs when speakers alternate between two or more languages within a single utterance, and it is used in different social contexts such as academic, media, and daily conversations. Given the paucity of studies conducted on code-mixing phenomenon at the university level in Egypt, the current study aims to examine the perception of phycology Department students toward English-Arabic code-mixing at a private university in Egypt. The participants of the study were 70 Egyptian female and male students that aged from 17-23 years old. A survey of 18 questions was distributed to the participants. The qualitative and quantitative methods were used to collect data. Research findings demonstrated that code-mixing helped students to express their emotions clearly without feeling anxious or embarrassed about speaking with their addressees within different social contexts, and most of the students showed a positive attitude toward code-mixing. During informal or casual conversations with others, code-mixing served as a language that each one used to represent their identity. In academic contexts, students were encouraged to code-mix in lectures, which helps them to join more discussions during the lecture and to express complex concepts easily without feeling anxious. While, other students used code-mixing strategy to express some specific technical expressions that are culturally refined with their native language. As for the current results, they provide a valuable insight for further research, which suggests to distribute the survey across all faculties or piloted to other universities to understand more about the attitudes and perceptions of students toward codemixing at university level in Egypt. Thus, code-mixing is not a direct form of language, but it is an important communicative strategy that is used in different communities. The importance of the current study stems from its sociolinguistic approach to cover a distinct gap in code-mixing, based on previous…

Multilingual Hybrid Learning and Cognitive Development in Middle School Learners: An Interdisciplinary Case Study from India
type: item
description: This study looks at how multilingual hybrid learning environments affect the thinking of middle school students who come from Urdu-speaking backgrounds in India. The research uses both qualitative and quantitative methods, including cognitive tests, observations, and analysis of classroom interactions. The study involved 73 students from two government-supported Urdu-medium schools in Telangana. The findings show that using bilingual content in a smart way, such as combining digital Urdu and English resources with teacher support, improves problem-solving skills, memory, and awareness of thinking processes. The study suggests a teaching model that is based on socio-constructivist ideas and translanguaging. It also highlights the importance of the NEP 2020’s vision for multilingual and digital learning, especially in areas where languages are less common.

The Physiological Intensity of Physical Activity, Taking into Account the Individual Profile and Model Characteristics of Physical Fitness in Belt Wrestling Classes
type: item
description: The article provides information on the practical use of calculating the physiological intensity of physical activity, taking into account the individual profile and model characteristics of physical fitness of belt wrestlers. The use of model characteristics of highly qualified belt wrestlers can be considered as a reference indicator for planning levels of physiological intensity of physical activity. The difference in the indicators of the individual profile of physical fitness of wrestlers from their model values makes it possible to identify and correct the disadvantages of choosing training equipment, to change the ratio of volume and physiological intensity of physical activity. This situation is due to the fact that when selecting funds, it is necessary to build complex training sessions with the solution of several tasks and at the same time take into account the strengths and weaknesses of athletes’ physical fitness.

The Rhetoric of Technology. An Overview of Problems and a Proposalfor Use of Rhetorical Tools
type: item
description: Can technology be perceived as rhetoric? This question is the starting point for further considerations, especially when, to put it imprecisely, technologies speak for us: interfaces, chatbots, algorithms. Are we truly at a stage where a kind of rhetoric of automation and digital persuasion has emerged? The problem boils down to how we understand the concepts of “technology,” “rhetoric,” and “digital persuasion.” Are these real terms (in the logical sense) or merely metaphors? What, then, is the role and significance of “technology” in today’s society? Can we truly speak of a change in communication—human-machine, or rather: human-AI tools? This is especially true given that the usefulness of AI tools in solving certain problems, such as machine learning, translation, and the deciphering of partially destroyed texts, such as the Herculaneum or Dead Sea Scrolls, is unquestionable. This study will attempt to answer these questions.

Becoming Vincent
type: item
description: Vincent van Gogh, by some curious process of mythification, became an insurmountable obstacle to me when I was young. Vincent was indeed a brilliant, sadly tortured young man, a drinker of absinthe, an artist pushed beyond his sanity by his desire to paint, until, finally his all-consuming fire ended by a bullet from his own gun. That sort of melodrama is unbeatable.

Self Portraiture and Self Awareness, 1900–2000: Evidence from Museum Metadata and Visual Analytics
type: item
description: This article traces how twentieth-century self-portraiture reconfigured the representation of selfhood across changing media. We assemble a corpus of 394 self-portrait records (1900-2000) from open museum catalogs (Met Open Access, Tate Collections, MoMA), harmonize medium and keyword fields, and apply Python/MATLAB visual analytics (time series plots, thematic breakdowns, word frequency mapping, and media share trends). This combined approach links collection metadata to close visual reading, providing a reproducible, cross-media view of how artists mobilized painting, photography, installation, and video to construct identity.

The humanity unites us
type: item
description: When we say “humanity,” we mean: Culture is the totality of socially transmitted behavior patterns, arts, beliefs, institutions, and all other products of human work and thought. Culture refers to all the things that make up people’s way of life, and art is a product of a highly creative mind. It includes the creation of images or objects in fields including painting, sculpture, printmaking, photography, and other visual arts. That is why we say: Art is one of the most important means of expression developed by human beings. And it is manifested in every aspect of life. Artists have always shown a deep concern about life around them. Many of them have recorded in paintings their observation of people going about their usual ways, performing their usual tasks. Modernization and globalization have brought changes to the art world. Migration has allowed artists to interact across the globe.

Interview BPineau Art Humanities and Linguistics

description: When someone talks to me about balance, I become a Taoist. For a long time, I used yin and yang in a static way, ignoring the middle ground. Things were either yin or yang; my world was binary. Thus, binary computing seemed to prove me right. But now I’ve admitted that quantum computing is truly Taoist.

From ICT to AI: Transforming TEFL in Morocco
type: item
description: This article examines the transformative potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Morocco’s Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) context, arguing for its strategic integration to address systemic educational challenges. While AI tools offer personalized learning, teacher support, and enhanced accessibility, their implementation faces significant hurdles including infrastructure gaps, cultural misalignment, and ethical concerns. The analysis critiques Morocco’s current ICT-based approach and proposes a balanced framework for AI adoption that prioritizes teacher agency, localized solutions, and equitable access. The discussion contributes to broader debates about technology integration in Global education systems, advocating for context-sensitive policies that harness AI’s benefits while mitigating its risks in Moroccan language classrooms.

How to be a language teacher and not die trying today?
type: item
description: The job of a foreign language teacher, regardless of the language being studied, is to share their knowledge of a language and its socio-cultural reality with learners who may need to communicate with people from other cultures. The internet and the technical advances it have brought about have been a rather positive first step in language learning, as communicating with people living far away is now very easy, as we have seen during the Covid pandemic: the other person could be almost as close as a neighbor, and communicating with them has become a concrete reality. Learners had the opportunity to play online with classmates of other nationalities and exchange a few words with them.

The Relationship Between Foot Arch Angle and Individual Stability
type: item
description: Foot arch types are categorized into three forms: high, normal and flat. Each arch type can influence walking, standing and athletic performance. How- ever, limited research has explored the relationship between foot arch structure and individual stability. This study aimed to examine the correlation between foot arch type and dynamic balance. Thirty participants (15 males and 15 females) mean aged 23.40 ± 0.894 underwent two tests: the Clarke’s Angle Test and the Y-Balance Test. Clarke’s Angle Test determined foot arch type, while the Y- Balance Test assessed dynamic stability in three directions: anterior, posterolateral and posteromedial. Pearson’s correlation was used for statistical analysis. A significant positive correlation was found between normal foot arch angles and Y-Balance scores in the posterolateral (r = 0.638, p = .004) and posteromedial (r = 0.640, p = .004) directions. In contrast, high arch angles showed strong but statistically non-significant negative correlations in all directions. Flat arch angles showed no significant relationship with balance. These findings suggest in Divi duals with normal arches may exhibit superior dynamic stability, while flat and high arch types require further investigation due to inconsistent trends.

Exploring Defensive Skill Execution in Netball Using a Video-Based Checklist
type: item
description: Limited informative feedback on defensive skill execution during real-game situations highlights the need for performance analysis to optimize netball performance. This study aimed to explore the defensive technical skills demonstrated during actual gameplay to gain a deeper understanding of player movements during the defensive phase. A Video-Based Checklist for Defensive Skills (V-bDSC) was developed and required both content verification and usability validation through the analysis of real-game footage. The V-bDSC was concurrently verified and validated by observing and analyzing defensive situations in a 5-minute recorded video of a regional-level netball match. The analysis resulted in the inclusion of seven additional specific defensive skill items in the checklist. The categorization of defensive skill execution into three action groups (Main Defence, Assist Defence 1 and Assist Defense 2) proved appropriate for capturing the complexity of defensive roles. During centre pass defence, Main Defence players predominantly executed the Double Defense skills while Assist Defence 1 players employed Inside and Outside Defensive skills. After the centre pass was completed, Main Defence players frequently applied Marking and Zoning techniques. In contrast, Assist Defence 1 players favoured Off-Ball Marking, Off-Ball Zone and Front Block as primary defensive responses. Although the analysis was limited to a 5-minute video segment, this study provides valuable insights and lays the groundwork for further investigation into defensive skill execution in competitive netball.

How to Use AI in Philosophy and Theology: Description of the Experience of Certain Possibilities
type: item
description: Today, we need to ask not about the possibilities that AI creates for philosophy and theology, but how to use these possibilities. Hence, a review of the state of research will be necessary, but at the same time it will be selective. Also, the description of my experience with AI tools and tools such as rhetoric (téchnerhetoriké), hypertexts or mind mapping provide some insight into the title issue. The description and analysis of both the three title concepts, as well as their meaning ranges, will allow for the acceptance of preliminary definitions and meaning ranges of the concepts, as well as what can be achieved in cooperation with AI tools for, for example, posing research problems in these fields.

Ubuntu, Agape, and the Power of Community A Philosophical Connection
type: item
description: Agape is a Greek word meaning selfless love. Martin Luther King Jr. used it to describe the foundation of the Beloved Community, a society built on justice, compassion, and nonviolence. But the idea of agape goes deeper: philosopher Charles Sanders Peirce wrote about agape in his essay “Evolutionary Love” (1893), describing it as a creative force that drives progress and harmony in the universe.

Strategies for Attracting International Students to Universities in the Mekong Delta, Vietnam
type: item
description: Vietnamese language proficiency has emerged as a critical need for the international community, particularly for students from neighboring countries like Laos and Cambodia. Communicative competence in Vietnamese not only fosters cultural exchange but serves as a fundamental prerequisite for pursuing higher education in Vietnam. In the context of globalization, mastery of Vietnamese offers learners significant academic and professional opportunities. However, empirical evidence suggests that Laotian and Cambodian learners face substantial hurdles in acquiring the language. Primary constraints include a scarcity of specialized teaching materials, limitations in lecturers’ pedagogical expertise in cross-cultural contexts, and shortcomings within existing curricula. To address these challenges, this study proposes strategic solutions to attract international students to universities in the Mekong Delta, including developing specialized curricula, enhancing faculty professional development, and constructing a supportive learning environment. These recommendations underscore the importance of a modern, learner-centered educational approach, thereby facilitating students’ integration and success in a new academic setting.

Re-Discovering God's Truth in the 21st Century an Exploration of Christian Faith and The Quest for Peaceful Living in Nigerian Society
type: item
description: The 21st century has ushered in unprecedented changes driven by rapid technological waves, shifting societal attention from truth. Today the world is battling with issues of globalization, climate change, and social justices. Philosophers and theologians have engaged in academic findings examining human clashes leading to general societal failures altering peaceful coexistence of human race. The quest for Gods truth is paramount today; on this note the paper adopted the qualitative approach to help examine the trajectory of sudden departure of Gods truth. The research discovered that the world is marked by injustices, divisions, conflicts, discord, banditry, corruption, and all types of evils parading in our streets. Therefore, search for this truth has shown the central importance of human dignity with regards to the reality and facts about their divinities. Different studies have often emphasized human clashes and the general failure in the communal and institutional peaceful living. These structural and institutional failures came largely from the negligence, corrupt mindset, and compromises. Departing from this trajectory, the paper seeks to rediscover God’s truth for the enhancement of peaceful living in our communities. The pursuit of peaceful living in the community is more urgent than ever. At the heart of this research lies a call to rediscover and embrace God’s truth as a guiding light towards unity, understanding, and cohesions among all individuals. This particular study has global significance in solving human crisis that have totally disconnected and alienated Nigerian societies, organizations, and ethnicities from enjoying peaceful coexistence. Seen from this perspective, the study has significant contributions to the discourses on peaceful living, religious differences, protracted enmity, discrimination, and ill-treatments. Similarly, this study enriches the contemporary discourses on honesty, justice and integrity, for if God’s truth is discovered, …

Learning to write in an Academic Genre: University English Learners use of Socio-Cultural Resources in a University in Rwandaural Resources in a University in Rwanda
type: item
description: Developing academic writing skills in English poses a significant challenge for university students in Rwanda, where English serves as the primary medium of instruction. English as a Second Language (ESL) learners must navigate formal academic conventions while drawing on rich socio-cultural knowledge embedded in local languages, proverbs, oral storytelling, communal practices, and personal experiences. This study investigates how university learners use socio-cultural resources in academic writing, and how these resources both enhance and complicate writing quality. Conducted at a medium-sized Rwandan university, the study adopted a qualitative case-study design, employing student writing samples, unstructured interviews, and classroom observations of three academic writing courses. Findings reveal that socio-cultural resources provide authentic illustrations, clarify abstract concepts, and enrich argumentation, thereby strengthening learner engagement and voice. However, challenges arise when cultural references conflict with English academic conventions, including issues with literal translation, cohesion, and audience comprehension. The study concludes that integrating socio-cultural resources explicitly into writing instruction, providing scaffolding, exemplars, and targeted feedback, can improve writing quality, support learner identity, and bridge local knowledge with international academic norms. These insights inform pedagogical strategies for ESL instruction in Rwandan higher education.

Mental Health and Culturally Specific Tools for Healing: A Case Study of Rwanda
type: item
description: Rwanda’s mental health landscape continues to reflect the enduring psychological effects of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi, compounded by persistent social, economic, and cultural challenges. This study explores how culturally specific healing mechanisms such as community-based sociotherapy, traditional healing practices, and local community rituals contribute to mental health recovery, resilience, and social cohesion within Rwandan society. Using a mixedmethods synthesis that combines national policy frameworks, epidemiological data, program evaluations, and qualitative insights, the paper critically examines the effectiveness, accessibility, and integration of culturally grounded approaches within Rwanda’s evolving mental health system. The findings reveal that Community-Based Sociotherapy (CBS) and other locally rooted psychosocial initiatives substantially improve emotional well-being, community trust, and reconciliation. In addition, traditional healers continue to serve as essential first-line providers for many individuals seeking mental health support. The study concludes by proposing policy measures to strengthen culturally responsive mental health services, promote collaboration between traditional and biomedical practitioners, enhance professional capacity, and expand community-based interventions through evidence-driven monitoring and evaluation. Overall, the paper underscores the importance of integrating indigenous knowledge systems into national mental health frameworks to foster sustainable recovery and social cohesion in post-genocide Rwanda.

Development of a Social Networking Platform for Sri Lankan Families with Integrated Parental Controls and Movie Streaming
type: item
description: This study explores the increasing disconnect in Sri Lankan families due to unregulated digital media consumption, particularly through movie streaming. It aims to develop a family-oriented social networking platform that integrates movie streaming, fostering healthy discussions while ensuring safe digital engagement. Grounded in Sri Lankan family values, the platform’s theoretical framework emphasises improved intrafamilial communication and responsible media usage, especially among younger users. A structured survey of Sri Lankan households assessed digital habits, family interactions, and parental concerns. Survey data were analyzed using regression and clustering techniques to identify core user needs and inform feature design. A bad‑word detection module, implemented with Random Forest classifiers, achieved 95 percent accuracy in moderating English‑language content; future enhancements will add Sinhala support for greater cultural relevance. Findings revealed strong demand for topic‑based movie discussions and robust parental‑control options—both of which the platform seamlessly integrates. This model offers an innovative solution to mitigate digital media’s adverse effects on family dynamics and presents a scalable, culturally adaptable approach with implications for the film industry and policymakers seeking to promote safer media consumption practices.

Rhetoric in Science and Technology Studies: in Defense of Classical Rhetoric. Against Posthumanist Rhetoric
type: item
description: While the problem of applying rhetorical theory (téchne rhetoriké) in research encompassing areas such as feminist new materialisms and object-oriented ontologies rests on the problematization of rhetoric, and in some cases even its rejection, contemporary rhetorical theory has enthusiastically embraced this “ethico-onto-epistemological” program. Without questioning the compelling results of these studies, I pose a question that, in my opinion, touches on the essence of the problem associated with the application of classical rhetorical theory. The tools of rhetorical theory arose from: first, research on language; and second, the accuracy of communication and mutual understanding between the speaker and their audience. The issues outlined above assume that, unlike classical rhetorical theory (téchne rhetoriké), there exists a contemporary version. It is unclear, however, how it would differ from classical theory and what its tools would be. Referring to the problems of applying rhetoric to the study of texts from the fields of science and technology, or rather, technology, I will attempt to demonstrate that the tools of classical rhetorical theory are fully sufficient to describe both the applications and the texts themselves. I should also point out from the outset that classical rhetorical theory (téchne rhetoriké) was from the outset linked to the Organon, or Aristotle’s logical writings. Certain proposals that appeared in the history of rhetoric, particularly in the 16th century and by scholars such as Pierre Ramus and Audomar Taleus, and in the 20th century, in the studies of Richard McKeon, among others, did not actually contribute much new. Separating research on logic and then language (especially after de Saussure’s work and the subsequent emergence of research from the Formalists and Structuralists) from classical rhetorical theory only complicated the description of the problems. Classical rhetorical theory (téchne rhetoriké) must be viewed as a theory o…

The Metaphysics of Science: The View of Aristotle, Kant and The Vienna Circle
type: item
description: The problem of metaphysics and its connections/references to science is very interesting in itself. This question has been posed and tried to be solved by many philosophers, as well as representatives of exact sciences. The analysis of databases such as PhilPapers or entries in the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy may discourage you from taking up this subject again. If I dare to do so, referring to Aristotle, Immanuel Kant, Rudolf Carnap, or, more broadly, the Vienna Circle, but also Hans Reichenbach, it is not because I see close connections here, but because, I believe, this problem can be solved. Aristotle and his attempt to systematize knowledge must be made the starting point. Although the proposals represented by other philosophers and representatives of exact sciences depart from the views of the Stagirite, it is in him and in logic and rhetoric that one can look for an attempt to outline the mutual relations of both, seemingly distant, fields. This study is a proposal to resolve the questions related to these compounds.

Tenacity: The Art of Letting the Science of ‘Informed Naivety’ Evolve
type: item
description: This essay reclaims the transcendental “superorganism” concept advanced by Carl O. Sauer and Alfred Kroeber as a precursor to the meta modernist ideal of “informed naivety.” Drawing on Charles Sanders Peirce’s abductive logic and his notion of “tenacity,” the essay argues for a renewed academic ethos—one that embraces paradox, intuition, and cultural holism as vital traits for a more humane social science in higher education

A Numismatic Study of The Exceptional Four-Dot One Rupee of Edward VII, British India
type: item
description: The coinage of King Edward VII in India, spanning from 1903 to 1910, represents a pivotal period in colonial monetary history, bridging the late Victorian era with the early decades of the twentieth century. During this period, the majority of rupee issues adhered to well-established designs, including the standard five-dot Bombay rupees and the rare three-dot Calcutta error of 1903. While these types have been studied extensively, this research identifies and examines a previously undocumented variant: the four-dot rupee, issued in 1903, 1904, and 1907. Through a combination of comparative analysis, photographic documentation, and review of existing numismatic scholarship, this study investigates the origins of the four-dot rupees. The research considers several possible explanations for their unusual dot arrangement, including engraver oversight, intentional modification, or transitional minting practices that reflect the technical and human factors influencing coin production. Each coin’s distinctive pattern underscores the nuanced and often unpredictable nature of colonial minting, where minor deviations could create lasting variants. The study’s findings highlight not only the rarity of the four-dot rupees but also their significance within Edwardian numismatics. By systematically documenting these coins, the research expands the classification of Edward VII coinage and offers new insights into the processes behind early twentieth-century minting in India. These discoveries enrich numismatic scholarship, providing collectors and historians with a deeper understanding of the production, variation, and historical importance of Edwardian rupees.
