French troops captured Lalla Fatma N'Soumer, a Kabyle spiritual and political leader who had become a prominent figure in resistance to the conquest. Her capture came after military operations against Kabyle communities and the defeat of defenders in the campaign. Colonial accounts often described her through exoticising labels; her leadership should instead be understood within Kabyle political, religious, and community networks. She was imprisoned and died in 1863.
