I believe the answer is:
pedestal
<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">plinth</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I know that plinth can be written as pedestal)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for pedestal that I've seen before include "Place for idol, or basin" , "Column support, on which one is worshipped" , "Base (for statue, etc)" , "Support or foundation" , "Place for hero" .)
