Lingeer Fatim Beye Joos Fadiou[3] (commonly Lingeer Fatim Beye) was a 14th-century (c. 1335[1]) Serer princess and queen (Lingeer) from the Kingdom of Sine.[4] She is the matriarch and early ancestor of the Joos Maternal Dynasty of Waalo.[5][6] She is usually regarded by some sources as the founder of the Joos Maternal Dynasty.[5] The pre-colonial Kingdoms of Sine and Waalo now lies within present-day Senegal. Her surname is Beye (English-Gambia) or Bèye (French-Senegal). Joos Fadiou is her maternal clan. In Serer, "Fa-tim" means "the maternal clan of..."
Lingeer Ndoye Demba, maternal granddaughter of Lingeer Fatim Beye, was given in marriage to the king of Waalo Brak Caaka Mbaar Mbooj[7]),[2][8] in c. 1367. Lingeer Ndoye Demba went on to establish the Joos Maternal Dynasty in Waalo which lasted from the 14th century to 1855, the year Waalo fell to the French resulting in the disestablishment of the monarchy.[9] From the 14th century to 1855, the Joos Maternal Dynasty provided many kings of Waalo but also contributed to its instability due to dynastic struggles between the competing maternal dynasties of the country (Joos, Tedyek and Loggar[10]).[11][12]
