The issue of the woman in the conception of political history presents both suggestions or a new vision in history as interest towards acknowledgment of the past. It is worth mentioning also, that in this short study one has made an attempt to change the historical accents, in other words, one has proposed to filtrate the political history through the feminine perception. Unfortunately, history feminine theme was rejected many years and only in the last decade was deeply researched by the colleges in Romania. Without pretending to fully solve the problem, one considers indisputable that without studying the history of vision as a whole might be unilateral. In this way, the respective study is just an attempt of treating a very delicate issue-the role of the woman in determining the ruling dynasties in Medieval Moldova and the regency of the ladies. The documentary of the questioned era reflects the situation and the position of women. In the continuity of the dynasties, a leading role have played the ladies. In addition, historical facts show that some ladies from Medieval Moldova were true historical figures.
