Sita (Sanskrit: सीता; "Sītā") is the wife of Rama, the seventh avatāra of Vishnu, and is esteemed an exemplar of womanly and wifely virtue. According to Hindu belief, Sita was herself an avatāra of Lakshmi, Vishnu's eternal consort, who chose to reincarnate herself on Earth as Sita, and endure an arduous life, in order to provide humankind an example of such virtues.
Sita was a foundling, discovered in a furrow in a ploughed field, and for that reason is regarded as a daughter of Bhumidevi, the earth Goddess. She was found and adopted by Janaka, king of Mithila, and his wife Sunayana. Upon coming of age, a swayamwara was held to select a suitable husband for her, and she was wed to Rama, prince of Ayodhya, an avatara of Vishnu.
Yes. Rama older than Sita.

Yes Sita is older than Rama, Sita was born much before than Rama, But her age was taken into account from the day she was found in the bed of mother earth, to say in terms of the epic sita is older than rama....

According to the epic, Sita was 6 & Rama was 13 (if i remember correctly) during their wedding. Yes, it was child marriage according to our law.

According to the Vedic culture, Sita should have been younger to Ram by about six to seven years.

may be Rama is older by age. but did he ever show the maturity?
Always gave an ear to everybody around,let it be step mother, or even a 'dhobi'. seeta was more matured and determined.she tolerated everything and showed courage by going b ack to earth.so no doubt,sita is older

It must e so naturlly. In India , in the olden days , it was neer the practice of any people to marry any woman who is elder to the man. Usually the male would be mnay many years older than the girl.There could never have been a single case in the olden days where a girl would marry any man younger to her.
