Sattam bin Fendi bin Abbas Al Fayez (Arabic: سطام الفايز , (c. 1830 – 1891) was an emir who led the Bani Sakher tribe from 1881 until his death in 1891.[1][2] He was the de facto ruler of the Bani Sakher after his father Fendi Al-Fayez gave him most of his responsibilities in the late 1870s,[3] and was the first person to have led Westerners to view the Moabite Stone in 1868.[4] Sattam was also the first tribal sheikh to begin cultivating land in the 1860s,[5] which began the sedentary settlement process of many of the biggest tribes in Jordan.[6] In September 1881, after the reunification of the Al-Fayez family under Sattam, he was recognized by the Ottoman Administration as the Emir of Al-Jizah and the paramount Shaykh of the Bani Sakher clan.[7]
