Ancient fabulist (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

aesop

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">ancient fabulist</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for aesop that I've seen before include "Ancient Greek author of moral tales" , "So ape the writer of fables" , "satirical writer" , "A pose by Greek writer of fables" , "Classic fable writer" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post, The Times, the LA Times and the Sydney Morning Herald.
