Szarvas: this flag is canting: the hungarian for
reindeer is "szarvas", and there's... a deer on the
flag! More specifically, due to the length of the antlers,
this deer is most probably the "Csodaszarvas", the
"miracle stag", which, according to Magyar legend, was
chased by Hunor and Magor (or Magyar), from their homes to a
water-logged part of Persia, Meotis, where they took away the
daughters-in-law of Belár for their retainers, and took the
daughters of the Alans' prince, Dula, for themselves, and it is
from them that the Magyar and Hun peoples originate.
