Historical object (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

relic

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">historical object</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(a relic is an ancient object)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for relic that I've seen before include "Old memento" , "Memorial of saint" , "(Holy) remains" , "Left over item, sometimes sacred" , "Surviving ancient custom" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal, The Telegraph, the Newsday and The New York Times.
