Abstract
At the beginning of the 5th/12th century the Sulayhi dynasty governed the region of Yemen under the mandate of their last queen, al-Sayyida Arwa bint Ahmad, also known as the Free Queen. She was a vassal of the fatimids imams from Cairo and a precursor of the ismaeli tayyibiyya in Yemen and India. In her testament, a document of great historical and linguistic value, she bequeaths to the al-Tayyib imam her most valuables belongings: a set of hundred jewels described with full details.
