Legend
Salevere Salumägi and the Devil's horns
Salevere Salumägi ja Vanapagana sarved
Salumägi at Salevere, a wooded hill near Matsalu Bay, was given a playful origin by a 75-year-old woman from Ullaste in 1939. Suur Tõll, she said, struck the Devil with his staff so hard that he knocked the horns off his head. One horn became Salevere Salumägi, the other the Salumägi of Mõisaküla nearby. The same storyteller explained other features of the coast as Devil's work too, among them the Mõisaküla bog that he had tamped down while trying to build himself a hell.

Suur Tõll löönud Vanapaganat kepiga nii kõvasti, et sarved lendasid peast. Ühest sarvest sai Salevere Salumägi, teisest lähedal asuv Mõisaküla Salumägi. Sama jutustaja seletas ka teisi rannikupaiku Vanapagana tööna, nende hulgas Mõisaküla raba, mille ta tampinud, kui tahtis enesele põrgut ehitada.
