"cross bone", also of unclear origin.
According to Grimm, Deutsches Wörterbuch (""Kreuz", meaning 8a".),
Kreuz "cross" is used of the sacral area of the spine, but also of the spine as a whole,
with usage examples from the 17th-century (Christian Weise, Isaacs Opferung, 1682, 3.11).
Notabilia Venatoris by Hermann Friedrich von Göchhausen (1710) and Teutscher Jäger by Johann Friedrich von Flemming (1719, p. 94) also give kreuz as hunting terminology for a specific bone of the stag.
