Elisabeta Ana Calea, also spelled Ana Calina and better known as Lady Calinica, was the second wife of Radu I, a 14th-century Wallachian voivode. Ultimately descended from the House of Basarab, she was a Byzantine princess born Caliphiƫ. Calinica was the mother of Mircea I of Wallachia; she outlived her husband by 56 years. Through Calinica the voivodes of Wallachia joined bloodlines with the Basarabs, ancestors of the notorious voivode Dracula.
