Forms: Also Middle English ? corbyal, Middle English–1600s corble, Middle English–1800s corbell, 1500s corbal, 1600s corbil(l.
Etymology: < Old French corbel, now corbeau < late Latin corvellum (nominative corvellus), diminutive of corvus raven. The architectural application of the term began in French, in which there are other senses transferred from that of raven or raven's beak. Hatzfeld, Dict. Général, says that the architectural corbel was originally cut slantwise (taillé en biseau), so that its profile would be beak-like.
1. A raven corbel's fee: part of a deer taken in hunting, left for the ravens; cf. corbin-bone n. at corbin n. Compounds, raven-bone n. at raven n.1 and adj. Compounds 3a. Obsolete.

2.
a. Architecture. A projection of stone, brick, timber, iron, or other constructional material, jutting out from (not merely attached to) the face of a wall, to support a superincumbent weight.As defined by the French architects, a corbel has parallel sides perpendicular to the surface of the wall, and must project farther than its own height. (Cf. console n.)Some English writers use the term more loosely, so as to include e.g. the tapering projection sustaining the ribs of a vault called by the French culot or cul de lampe, and specially excluded by Viollet-le-Duc and Bosc from their definition of corbeau.In English, the term appears to have been purely technical, until caught up by Sir Walter Scott; his ‘corbels carved grotesque and grim’ have taken hold of the popular fancy, and associated the word with the notion of grotesque ornamentation; but a corbel is not an ornament, nor does ornamentation enter into its essential character.
