Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationRāmapatnī (सीता) refers to “Rāma’s wife” and is used to describe Sītā (daughter Dhanyā), according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.2.—Accordingly, as Sanatkumāra said to the three daughters of Svadhā (i.e., Menā, Dhanyā and Kalāvatī) after cursing them:—“[...] ye the daughters of forefathers (i.e., Dhanyā) shall shine in heaven. By the vision of Viṣṇu your evil actions have been quelled. [...] Dhanyā’s daughter Sītā will become Rāma’s wife (i.e., rāmapatnī). Based on worldly conventions she will sport about with Rāma”.
The Purana (पुराण, purāṇas) refers to Sanskrit literature preserving ancient India’s vast cultural history, including historical legends, religious ceremonies, various arts and sciences.
