† risagonn.

Forms: 1600s rizagon, 1600s (1800s historical) rysagone, 1700s–1800s risagon, 1700s–1800s rysagon.

Origin: Of uncertain origin. Perhaps a borrowing from a Dravidian language.

Etymology: Origin uncertain; perhaps < a Dravidian language (compare Tamil aricaṉam, Kannada arisana, both in sense ‘turmeric, curcuma’, for which cassumunar is a common medical substitute), although the -g- is difficult to explain (perhaps originally a misreading or typographical error).See quot. 1855 for an alternative suggestion. Compare the following post-classical Latin form (in which the spelling is probably influenced by medical words of Greek origin with initial rh- ) in the same source as quot. 1679:1679 J. Pechey Observ. Root Cassumuniar 6 Rx rad. Rhysagon. pulver...cum syrup.

Medicine. Obsolete.
