Persian ruler (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

shah

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">persian ruler</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this before)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for shah that I've seen before include "Old Middle Eastern ruler" , "Sovereign ousted in 1979" , "Former Persian title" , "Persian monarch" , "Title of Iranian monarch" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph, the King Feature Syndicate, The Independent, the Universal and the Penny Press.
