This article is about the Matriarchs of the Adepta Sororitas; for the other page, see Matriarch (disambiguation).

The Matriarchs are revered historical Imperial religious figures.^[1]

These six sisters were drawn from the Daughters of the Emperor and were taken into the chamber of the Golden Throne at the climax of the Reign of Blood. Each has since been declared a Saint and went on to become revered by a major Order of the Adepta Sororitas.^[1]
