Horse and Man

A composite of the skeletons of a Human and a Horse arranged into a lifelike pose, at an exhibit in the Australian Museum, Sydney, Australia.

Skeleton Knight could be based off on a skeleton (from Greek σκελετός, skeletos "dried body", "mummy"). It's the body part that forms the supporting structure of an organism. There are two different skeletal types: the exoskeleton, which is the stable outer shell of an organism, and the endoskeleton, which forms the support structure inside the body.

In a figurative sense, skeleton can refer to technology that supports a structure such as a building.
