Anna Vsevolodovna of Kyiv was a Kievan Rus' princess and nun who lived from approximately 1001 to 1112. As the daughter of Vsevolod I, she traveled to Byzantium in 1089 to lead an embassy seeking a new metropolitan. Inspired by the advanced Byzantine culture, she returned to her homeland to establish educational opportunities for women. She founded the Ianchinii convent, where she served as a head teacher and implemented a curriculum that integrated academic study with practical skills.
