Morta was the Grand Duchess and subsequently Queen consort of Lithuania upon the accession of her husband, Mindaugas, who was crowned as King of Lithuania in 1253. Very little is known about her life. Morta was probably Mindaugas' second wife as Vaišvilkas, the eldest son of Mindaugas, was already a mature man active in international politics when Morta's sons were still young and dependent on the parents. After her death, Mindaugas married her sister, the wife of Daumantas. In revenge, Daumantas allied with Treniota and assassinated Mindaugas and two of Morta's sons in 1263.
