Rudimentary (9)

Ross

I think it could be either:

primitive

elemental

'rudimentary' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for elemental that I've seen before include "Let me lean like forces of nature" , "Related to the powers of nature" , "Of basic importance" , "Fundamental; supernatural entity" , "Pertaining to weather or to first principles" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian and the Sydney Morning Herald.
