Raisa Soltamuradovna Akhmatova (Chechen: Раиса Солтамурадовна Ахматова) (December 13, 1928 – 1992) is an internationally recognized Chechen poet. Raisa's poems have been especially popular among ethnic Chechens and Ingush worldwide, although her entire archive (containing over 600 files) was destroyed when Russian forces burned the Chechen National Archives during the First Chechen War. Akhmatova is known for writing poem collections such as: Native Republic (1958), Strike me in the Face, Wind (1959), Im coming to You (1960), Difficult Love (1963), and Revelation (1964)
