Ross

I believe the answer is:

plato

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">allegory of the cave philosopher</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 plato that I've seen before include "Republic author" , "Philosopher of ancient Greece" , "Greek character" , "Ancient Athenian philosopher, pupil of Socrates" , "Ancient Greek philosopher" .)

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