A daughter of a Cuman khan, she married Vsevolod I in 1068. In connection to the wedding, she converted from her original faith, Tengrism, to Christianity, and was given the name Anna.

When she was widowed in 1093, she stayed in Kiev.

In 1097 her stepson Volodymyr Monomakh besieged Sviatoslav Iziaslavych in Kiev. Anna, together with Nicholas, Metropolitian of Kiev and all Rus', were chosen to act as mediators. She managed to stop the siege and secure peace by addressing her stepson with the following words:

молимсѧ кнѧже тобѣ и братома твоима . не мозѣте погубити Русьскои землѣ . аще бо возметь рать межю собою . погани имуть радоватисѧ . и возмуть землю нашю . юже бѣша стѧжали ваши дѣди . ї ѡц҃и ваши . трудомъ великимъ и хороборьствомъ . побарѧюще по Русьскои земли . а ины земли приискаху . а вы хощете погубити Русьскую землю

We ask you, prince, and both your brothers: do not destroy the Rus' land. For if you raise your army among yourselves, the pagans will rejoice and take our land, which was gathered by your grandfathers and your fathers through great labour and courage, fighting for the Rus' land, and they obtained other lands. And you want to destroy the Rus' land.
