    		Yes, Rama is an avatar of Vishnu but I was actually looking for Sita.
    Sita is an avatar of Lakshmi, the others being Dharini and Rukmini.

    "When Vishnu appears as Parashurama, he marries Lakshmi as Dharini. When he is Rama, Lakshmi is born as Sita. As Krishna he marries her as Rukmini."
