This is Dihya (also known as the Kahina), a legendary Numidian/Berber queen and warrior who ruled the Auras region in the 7th century.
She is famous for uniting the tribes of North Africa to defend their land. Dihya fiercely fought the Arab armies and successfully resisted their expansion for years through her brilliant military strategy. For us, she remains an eternal symbol of resistance, unity, and courage."
