Person
Benedetta of Cagliari
Benedetta was judge, or ruler, of the Judicate of Cagliari in Sardinia from 1214 until her death around 1232. Her reign was dominated by the growing power of Pisa, which in 1216 built the fortress of Castel di Castro on the hill above Cagliari. She struggled to preserve her independence through her marriages and appeals to the papacy.
