Sacred stone, spring or grove
Hiieringapealne sacred grove, Poanse
Ohvrikoht Hiieringapealne, Poanse
On a stony moraine ridge between Jaagu and Karjuse farms in Poanse (Puantse) village lie six stone rings about six metres across. A rowan grew in the middle of the first; earlier a great rowan stood there that received offerings. Legend says the Devil wanted to build a town on this spot and hauled the stones together, but Kibiste farm's rooster crowed before dawn. In fury he searched his pockets for something to throw, found only a grain of sand and flung it; it flew over the farmhouse and landed in Kibiste field as a granite block over two metres high.

Poanse (Puantse) külas Jaagu ja Karjuse talu vahel on kivine moreenseljak, kus asub kuus umbes kuuemeetrise läbimõõduga kiviringi. Esimese ringi keskel kasvas pihlakas, varem aga seisis seal suur pihlakas, mille alla toodi ohvreid. Muistendi järgi tahtis Vanapagan siia linna ehitada ja vedas kivid kokku, kuid Kibiste talu kukk laulis enne koitu. Vihaga otsis ta taskutest midagi visata, leidis vaid liivatera ja heitis selle; tera lendas üle talumaja ja maandus Kibiste põllule üle kahe meetri kõrguse graniidimürakana.
