Kalighat Kali is the presiding goddess of the Kalighat Temple in Kolkata, counted in the canonical 51 Shakti Peethas as the place where the right toe of the dismembered Sati fell. The shrine is the theological centre of Bengali Shaktism, the eponym of modern Calcutta / Kolkata (from Kalighat via Kalikata), and — after Tarapith — the most important Kali shrine in India. Unlike most pan-Indian Kali depictions, the Kalighat mula-vigraha is **not anthropomorphic in the standard sense
