Forbidden (variant spelling) (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tabu

(Other definitions for tabu that I've seen before include "Forbidden (Alt sp.)" , "Social prohibition" , "ostracised" , "Forbidden (variant spelling)" , "Ban resulting from social custom" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
