Sita is a prominent character in the Hindu epic Ramayana. The Ramayana depicts her as the wife of Rama, an incarnation of Vishnu.
Hence she is seen as Sita, an incarnation of Lakshmi. She is also called Maithili because she is the princess of Mathilan country.
Sita:
In the Ramayana, Janakara, who performed Swayamavaram to marry Sita when she came of age, announced that she would be married off to whoever successfully took the “string” from the bow given by Shiva.
Many Rajakumars including Lord Rama participated in this swayamvaram. When Rama tried to string the bow that no one could shake, the bow broke with a great occident.
