Transylvanian independence was briefly restored in the War of 1703–1711 by Prince Francis II Rákóczi, who also claimed the Hungarian throne. His "Kuruc" cavalry fought under a seven-bars variant of the Árpád stripes, with the slogan "IUSTAM CAUSAM DEUS NON DERELINQUET" ("God will not abandon the just cause"). Tradition about Transylvania's coat of arms was preserved in other Hungarian circles: in 1734, Ioannes Szegedi published an engraving of it, showing a crowned eagle, "sable", and seven towers, "argent", over seven mountains, "vert", all on "azure" background; here, the Székelys were no longer represented by celestial bodies, but by the older arm-and-sword.
