Evidential argumentation extends Dung's abstract argumentation by requiring arguments and interactions to be backed by chains of evidence rooted in prima-facie elements. However, existing formalisms lack a unified treatment of evidential support, higher-order relations (attacks and supports targeting arbitrary elements), and collective interactions (sources as sets). In this paper, we introduce the Evidential-Based Higher-Order Set Argumentation Framework (EHSAF), which conservatively generalises several existing frameworks within a single expressive setting. We develop two complete semantics
