Project goal, objectives and relevance: The project aims to study the numismatic collection of the Khariton Akhvlediani Museum. Preserved here are coins of the Colchian "Tetris", the Hellenistic period Amisos, Sinop, Pantikapaion, Ephesus, Seleucids, various representatives of the Macedonian dynasty, Mithridates Eupator, Coins minted on behalf of various Roman emperors, Parthian, Sasanian Iran, Byzantium, Trabzon Aspirin, Kirmaneuli Tetri, Arabic, Seljuk, Georgian: Giorgi I, Tamar, Rusudan, Lasha-Giorgi, Erekle II, Iranian or Ottoman, Russian or European coins attribution and their involvement in scientific circulation. Their total number is over 700. As a result of the project, a Georgian-English-language catalog "Coins Preserved in the Khariton Akhvlediani Museum of Adjara" will be published. The unique collection of coins preserved in the museum is unknown to Georgian numismatists and to the general public interested in numismatics in general. Photos and descriptions of the coins will be presented in chronological order. Each epoch will be separated into separate chapters and will be accompanied by a brief description of the epoch. The circumstances of the discovery of each coin, the topographic map of the coins found in southwestern Georgia will be indicated. By publishing these monuments, we provide historians, archaeologists, and economists with an objective source, creating a source base to use for various studies. It will be especially useful for historians working on Greek colonization, the formation of the Kingdom of Colchis, the relations between the Eastern Black Sea and the ancient world, Pontus and Colchis, Roman, Byzantine, Sassanid, Arabic, Seljuk, Mongol expansion and trade-political relations, etc.

Numismatic catalogs are of great interest to tourists, which undoubtedly contributes to the popularization of our scientific achievements abroad. The locals are also interested in which countries' money circulated in our country in the past and what their visual appearance is.

Summary: The most important condition for the socio-economic stability and economic independence of any country is food security, and the production of cereals is rightly considered the basis for food security. The importance of wheat as a food product has been immeasurable throughout the history of human public life. Georgia is one of the homelands of wild wheat and the history of wheat begins in our country from time immemorial. However, today the sown area of ​​wheat is 44.8 thousand hectares, and the average wheat yield is 2.2 tons per hectare. Therefore, increasing grain production in the country at the expense of improved, competitive wheat varieties is one of the domestic priorities for the Georgian agricultural sector. Recently, the wheat production situation has started to improve through the establishment of international cooperation with CIMMYT and ICARDA International Fall Wheat Improvement Program, and the project participants tested various international nurseries and registered several distinctive wheat genotypes as new varieties for production in Georgia.

The aim of the presented project is to identify, register and further introduce genotypes based on immunological and ecological testing in different agro-climatic zones, which exceed the varieties produced in Georgia in terms of adaptability, yield, disease resistance and grain quality. The project also aims to organize seminars and demonstration plots for farmers, breeders, grain producers, Georgian government officials and other stakeholders. This will be the best way to present the main practical result of the project - new varieties of wheat. The project consists of seven tasks and international classical methods will be used to implement them. The key participants and the foreign consultant with relevant knowledge, high competence and extensive experience in the field of research topics will ensure the successful completion of the project. The research will to some extent contribute to the development of intellectual potential in the country, improving the socio-economic situation and food security, which undoubtedly emphasizes the importance of the presented research.

SummaryBlueberry (Vaccinium uliginosum) has attracted the greatest attention of farmers among berry crops in Georgia. This was facilitated by the fact that in the humid subtropical zone of western Georgia there are excellent natural climatic conditions for the cultivation of blueberries. Due to its great demand on the world market, it is possible to establish a civilized blueberry market in Georgia and hold strong positions in this market. However, due to the occurrence of various diseases, the risk of blueberry plantation decline is high worldwide, which is a serious obstacle to obtaining abundant and environmentally friendly blueberry products. A wide range of blueberry diseases has been described in blueberry producing countries. Among the diseases, the causes of blueberry plant and especially stem disease are widespread and harmful. Such as Botryosphaeria, Neofusicoccum, Diaporthe, Phoma and others. Whose rapid spread has led to the total destruction of blueberry orchards in many countries.

In view of all the above, it is necessary to conduct targeted studies, timely and accurate diagnosis of diseases, in order to develop effective protective measures. 

The primary goal of the present project is to determine the current status of blueberries in western Georgia by expeditiously examining plantations and isolating pathogens from diseased specimens; Diagnosis of diseases identified during the vegetation and harvest-storage period of blueberries, study of the biological characteristics of fungi-causing microorganisms, replenishment of the crop collection at the Institute with blueberry pathogens. Special emphasis will be placed on pathogens of quarantine importance. The ultimate goal of the project is to develop preventive measures to prevent diseases, as well as recommendations to combat diseases identified during the study and to disseminate them among blueberry producers; The project also aims to improve and develop the scientific activities of the Institute of Phytopathology and Biodiversity, which will provide a solid basis for its contribution to the development of agriculture in Georgia. The scientific innovation obtained as a result of the project implementation will be the identification of new, including quarantine, microorganisms and the development of effective means of their control. The results of the project will provide a scientific basis for the study of blueberry diseases and will help to protect and increase the yield of blueberries. The research planned under the project will be carried out through field expeditions and laboratory analysis. International classical microbiological and molecular biology methods will be used during the research.

Based on the results obtained as a result of successful completion of the planned tasks, an article will be prepared, which will be published in a highly rated journal.

  1. Science project title Interdisciplinary studies of the ancient iron metallurgy of Colchis

Grant funding source: Shota Rustaveli National Science Foundation

Science Project supervisor: Professor Nana Khakhutaishvili

Science Project executor(s): Amiran Kakhidze, Revaz Papuashvili, Guram Chkhatarashvili, Sulkhan Okropiridze. Master's / doctoral students involved in the project: Sulkhan Okropiridze

Summary: The study of the ancient iron metallurgy of Colchis is one of the important problems of the ancient history of our country. The issue concerns the contribution of Georgian tribes in the world iron metallurgy. "

Considering the material material obtained by Georgian specialists on the territory of Kolkheti, as well as the available written sources, the contours of scientific evidence that the eastern and southeastern Black Sea coast (historical Kolkheti) were the important and, possibly, the main region where ancient iron production took place .

The urgency of the study of the ancient iron metallurgy of Colchis presented by the project is due to the special importance of this metal in the history of ancient societies, including Colchis. The problem presented for research concerns an important issue such as the definition of the conception of iron metallurgy and its initial stage (chronology) in Colchis. Resolving this issue will allow us to pinpoint the time of the Iron Age in the Western Caucasus. The project also identifies how the transition from bronze-making technological processes to the iron-making industry took place (observation of this process is made possible by the coexistence of bronze and iron slag detected in the study area, which is a very interesting fact and answers a number of questions). The notion that the advanced phase of bronze metallurgy, given the complex physico-chemical and technological parameters of production, should have had a major impact on the transition from bronze to ferrous metallurgy needs solid justification. It should be noted that our foreign colleagues will be of great help in the study of these issues, in whose laboratories a large part of the material will be studied (the material will be sent to our research institutions, as well as to laboratories in England, USA and Italy, as a reference , So for comparison - for more comprehensive, complete information).

The ultimate goal of the project is to determine the comparative chronology of the oldest iron ore workshops in the area of ​​historic Kolkheti using modern technologies of improved archaeomagnetic and radiocarbon dating methods, which will allow us to draw new conclusions and may significantly expand our knowledge of iron ore metallurgy. Current provisions. As a result of purposeful field-archeological researches, within the framework of the project, the technological processes of transition from bronze to iron will be specified, synchronous settlements will be fixed in the iron production zone. Within the framework of the project, a unified monograph will be prepared with a catalog, which will present all the monuments confirming the ancient iron metallurgy of Kolkheti on the territory of Western Georgia and the early iron items presented on various monuments of Western Georgia.

Short description of the project: The aim of the project is to scientifically process, decipher, translate, do academic research and publish a monograph of the two most important Ottoman manuscript documents "Extensive and Short Books of the Batumi Flag". The documents are stored in the archives of Ankara Land and Cadastre Main Division. Copies are kept in the Ottoman Archives of the Presidential Archives in Istanbul.

Batumi was united as a separate flag in the Ottoman Empire. It was also the center of the province at various times. The documents show that in the given period, in addition to the flag of Batumi, the present city and the surrounding areas (up to 20 villages of present-day Adjara) also included the historic Chaneti.

The documents contain a large number of extensive records, the reading, translation and circulation of which shed light on issues of the history of Batumi and the whole region, which are still unknown to the Georgian society. Their publication will undoubtedly be a first source for those interested in the issue.
