In his opinion, the ethnonym goes back to the fact that the Setu equivalent to the Estonian word see (it, this) is settu. Similar pejorative regional nicknames that are based on small differences in speech are known from South Estonia too, but have disappeared from use

For example, Lutheran Finns considered themselves Swedes and Orthodox Karelians considered themselves Russians. See Taagepera, op. cit., p. 100. Catholicism was regarded as Polish and Orthodoxy as the Russian faith in Belarus. Accordingly, many Catholic Belarussians considered themselves Polish and the Orthodox considered themselves Russians

The project for the epic was written by a setuphile of Estonian origin, Paulopriit Voolaine. He sent it in 1927 to the famous Setu folk singer Arma Vabarna, who sang the epic according to Voolaine's plan. Vabarna herself was illiterate; therefore her son wrote down the text. Voolaine, who considered the Setus a separate Finno-Ugric people, probably thought that if the Finns have their Kalevala and Estonians have Kalevipoeg, the Setus too must have their own epic. The epic was printed much later in Kuopio, Finland, and is called a national epic on the title page
