According to some Irish lore, Tlachtga was raped by Simon Magus while her father was learning magic, and gave birth to three sons Dorb/Doirb, Cuma/Cumma, and Muach. In other versions, she was raped by Magus' three sons. Tlachtga's sons were born on the hill that would bear the name of their mother.
