Forbidden by custom (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

taboo

'forbidden by custom' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for taboo that I've seen before include "No-no" , "Ritually forbidden" , "Prohibited as unclean or holy" , "Socially prohibited" , "Not to be touched or used, banned for religious reasons" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
