Lord Rama is said to have incarnated multiple times one earth in multiple treta-yugas of past maha-yugas.
Vayu Purana mentions the following :
Tretayuge chaturvinshe ravanastapasah kshayat
Ramam Dasharathim prapya saganah kshayamiyavan
Which means that Ravana met Rama, the son of Dasaratha in a battle field during treta yuga of 24th mahayuga.
Rama did not kill Ravana, just to get back his wife. Ravana was dictating terms at trade and wealth of all kingdoms on earth.
But he could not be killed easily due to his worship of Lord Siva.
So, after multiple attempts in multiple Ramayanas, the sages decided to seperate Seetha from Rama and place her in Ravana’s kingdom.
- Seetha’s weeping for one year in ravana’s place would weaken his protective layer.
- Next step was Hanuman killing some part of army and destroying Lanka’s Vaasthu by burning key places.
- Final step was done by Rama, crossing over the sea on bridge with 200 million Vanaras and killing Ravana.
