A museum is an institution that cares for (conserves) a collection of artifacts and other objects of scientific, artistic, cultural, or historical importance and makes them available for public viewing through exhibits that may be permanent or temporary.[1] Most large museums are located in major cities throughout the world and more local ones exist in smaller cities, towns and even the countryside. Museums have varying aims, ranging from serving researchers and specialists to serving the general public. The continuing acceleration in the digitization of information, combined with the increasing capacity of digital information storage, is causing the traditional model of museums (i.e. as static "collections of collections" of three-dimensional specimens and artifacts) to expand to include virtual exhibits and high-resolution images of their collections for perusal, study, and exploration from any place with Internet.[citation needed] The city with the largest number of museums is Mexico City with over 128 museums. According to The World Museum Community, there are more than 55,000 museums in 202 countries.[2]
The Museum possesses the largest collection of the world famous Gandhara Sculptures after Lahore. There is also a well appointed library in the Museum, which meets the needs of the scholars and students through its stock of 4600 books and references of arts and allied subjects.
Uttam Chand was born in 1934 in Melwara, Rajasthan. He completed his schooling at jodhpur Rajasthan. He graduated in architecture with I class honors in 1958 at Indian institute of technology, Kharagpur where he was a merit scholar throughout.

Is it finally time for that first holiday you’ll be taking ? If so, then most likely you’ll be looking for a reasonably cheap destination where you can have all the fun in the world and enjoy your newfound independence.Here it is: I'm presented about a best holiday destination.
MY PICK OF THE REAL PARADISE GARDENS OF THE WORLD
The gardens of the Emperors and Nobles were designed for recreation and aesthetic pleasure, while the gardens of temples were designed for contemplation and meditation. All these involve a creative way of designing the landscape with manicured grass, hedges and blooming flowers. However the Japanese have mastered the art of real serene natural gardens surrounding silent ponds and lakes. The Italians have created the rennaisance gardens with sculptures and fountains with the lead from Michael Angelo, though the French have maintained a blend of traditional and modern themes with the best gardens of the world.
Well considering all that is beautiful in outdoor gardening, here are my pick of the best floral and natural gardens of the world.
With the best of regards.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2. Hill Palace Museum, once the residence of the royal famly of Kochi is now the
largest Archaeological museum of Kerala. This Palace was built in 1865. Hill Palace
is located at about 12 kilometers from Cochin on the Kochi Chottanikkara Road.
The Hill Palace is set amongst the sprawling estate of 52 acres with lush green
plantations and lawns all over. There are 49 buildings built in the traditional Kerala
style of Architecture and terraced land with ponds, fountains and landscaped lawns.
Hill Palace is a fullfledged archaeological museum and a first ever Ethno
Archaeological and Heritage museum as well.
3. Complex
The palace complex consists of 49 buildings in the traditional architectural style bed land with ponds,
fountains and lawns. A full fledged ethno archaeological museum and Kerala's first ever Heritage
museum are the main attractions here.
There is an 'ettukettu' constructed in the typical Kerala style is the oldest building in the whole complex
which is said to have been constructed around 1850 AD. There is an adjacent pond, temple and urappura
in that ettukettu construction.
4. Period Built:
Palace Was Built In 1865 And Museum Opened To Public In 1986
Museum was built in 1865 by the Maharaja of Cochin. It was handed over to the Government of Kerala by the Cochin
Royal Family and in 1980, the palace was taken over by the Department of Archaeology.
It was later converted into a museum and opened to public in 1986.
One could spend hours at the Hill Palace Museum in Tripunithura and not know how time flies. The several attractions the
palace offers leave you rooted in a time capsule. The museum has an archaeological museum, a heritage museum, a deer
park, a pre-historic park and a children’s park.
5. Items on display in the 1865
European style palace.
Upper passageway at Hill Palace Museum, Thripunithura.
The floor appears to be stone tiles. Carved wooden columns
and glass windows line the gallery that extends around the
upper storey. I see it as a much-modernized, distant echo of
the wooden galleries that surround the traditional palaces,
such as Krishnapuram Palace.
This is an oil-burning metal lamp that I saw in a
display case. The open pan at the lamp’s base
contains the oil, and people rest wicks on the
pan’s brim, and light the wicks. The brim can
support one or many wicks, depending on the
need for light.
A chain is one several methods of supporting a
lamp. Other lamps stand atop built-in pedestals
or are mounted on the wall.
A hanging lamp is called ത◌ൂക◌്ക◌ു
വ◌ിളക◌്ക◌് (thookku vilakku)
6. aRCHITECTURE
The Ettukettu, or two-courtyard traditional palace from 1850.
One of the paths leading to the old palace, or “ettukettu”, at the Hill Palace Museum complex in
Thripunithura.
“Ettukettu” means “eight halls”. An ettukettu has two courtyards, each with four adjoining rooms.
The old palace is nestled into the hillside, veiled by trees. Paths meander through the large estate, much
of it landscaped garden. One perceives that one crosses a gulf of distance and time when walking from
the bright, busy new palace to the peaceful, shaded ettukettu.
7. Roof detail of Ettukettu, or “eight-halled” palace
with two courtyards. The dormer depicted here
is known in Malayalam as “mukhappu”, related
to the word മ◌ുഖ◌ം (mukham) or “face”.
The roof’s structure, including the dormer’s, is
made of fretsawn and carved wood.
Two masonry columns: each has an oil-burning
stone lamp let into the surface. A visitor would
see the lamps when approaching the old
palace’s entrance.
8. top is copied from temple architecture. The name for
the top is “makutam”, which perhaps translates as
“sceptre” or ornamental top.
9. Paliam gallery in the museum contains the collections donated by the
Paliyathachan's family. Paliyathachan's were hereditary Prime
Ministers to the Cochin Maharaja’s for a long period. This gallery was
opened in 1991. The gallery of cabinet Hall displays royal furniture's
including the 'Simhasana' (the throne or the king's chair).
There is also a Folklore and Folk Arts Gallery at the Hill Palace
Museum featuring some old musical instruments and clay models.
And if you are interested in big-sized exhibits, walk into the gallery
for chariots at the Hill Palace Museum. Here, you will come across
displays of horse-drawn coaches imported from England and
formerly used by the Maharajas of Travancore.
