Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: rig n.1, bone n.1
Etymology: < rig n.1 + bone n.1 Compare ridge bone n.In Middle English it is often difficult to distinguish instances of this word (with a first element containing a plosive: compare rig n.1) from those of ridge bone n. (with a first element containing an affricate: compare ridge n.1). In such cases the provenance of the source has been taken into account wherever possible, with formally ambiguous examples from Danelaw counties and other areas of significant Scandinavian influence (such as the north-west of England) assigned to this entry and the remainder to ridge bone n.; some of the examples given here may properly belong at that entry, and vice versa. See further discussion at ridge n.1
Now Scottish and English regional (northern).
The backbone; the spine. In early use also: †a vertebra (obsolete). Also figurative.
