The Uchchaith entrance pictured here
The photograph shows Machh Dwar at Uchchaith Bhagwati Sthan in Benipatti. Madhubani district identifies Uchaitha with a Bhagwati temple beside the Thumne River. This provides a named Goddess site within Mithila.
Mithila is a cultural region rather than a single temple address. The photograph does not establish that every Peetha list refers to Uchchaith, nor does it make the pictured entrance a view of Janakpur. Those identifications need to be compared separately.
Names recorded in the tradition
- Goddess
- Mata Uma / Mahadevi

These are devotional associations, not archaeological findings. Lists and local identifications can differ.
