‘’’Axataf’’’ was the QaidofSeville at the time of the reconquest of the citybyFerdinand III of Castile in 1248. His name is cited in various ways in articles and essays, with Axataf being the most common, but it can also be found as Saqqaf, Chetaf and Axacad.
On the death of Ibn Hud in 1238, Seville returned to owe obedience to Almohad Empire and paid obedience to the Caliph Arraxid. After the death of Arraxid in 1242, his brother, Ali ben Idris Asaid Almotadidbila, was proclaimed caliph. A year later, the governor of Ceuta withdrew his obedience to the Moroccan caliph and recognized that of Tunisia. Subsequently, the same thing happened with Sevilla, Tarifa and Jerez. Abu Zakariyya Yahya I, Sultan hafsida of Tunisia, accepted that vassalage and sent to Seville a governor who won the antipathies of the Sevillians, who expelled him in 1245. He was succeeded by Bel Alchad, of Sevillian lineage. Bel Alchad, fearful of the reaction of the Tunisians and the advance of Christian troops, decided to sign an alliance with Ferdinand III for a period of one year. Bel Achad was killed by Axataf, the commander of the garrison in Seville, in March 1246. Cite error: A<ref>
