Ratu Kuning
Raja Ratu Kuning was the sovereign queen of Patani in 1635–1688. Her name means "the Yellow Queen" in English.
She succeeded her mother, Queen Raja Ungu. She was the last of four females to have ruled in succession in the Patani Kingdom since 1584. She is the last queen regnant who is acknowledged as legitimate in the Patani chronicles. As Patani became less internationally attractive for traders in the late 17th century, sources about Patani history are scarce in that period. There is dispute over when her rule ended, and who succeeded her.
