Ross

I believe the answer is:

omar

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">persian polymath khayyam</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 omar that I've seen before include "and 16 Down: Persian poet" , "- Khayyam, Persian poet, astronomer and mathematician" , "old poet" , "- Sharif, film actor" , "Arab" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
