Sita - 2024 ACF Fall - Buzzpoints App

Question

Translations of one epic differ in whether this woman chose or was forced to enter a fire as a sign of chastity for her husband. For 10 points each:

[10m] Name this avatar of Lakshmi who marries a Prince of Ayodhya. Hanuman discovered that this woman was kidnapped by Ravana and held on Lanka.

ANSWER: Sita

[10e] Sita’s kidnapping drives this epic by Valmiki (“vahl-MEE-kee”) titled for an avatar of Vishnu. This epic and the Mahabharata (“muh-hah-BAH-ruh-tuh”) are the two most prominent in Hinduism.

ANSWER: Ramayana

[10h] Description acceptable. During the war to save Sita, Lakshmana is injured and Hanuman is unable to find the Sanjivani (“sun-JEE-vuh-nee”) herb on Mount Dronagiri; Hanuman instead performs this action and brings its result to Lakshmana.

ANSWER: he picks up the mountain [accept answers that indicate picking up or carrying or moving the mountain; accept peak or summit or land or hill or Dronagiri in place of “mountain”]
