Ancient serf (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

helot

'ancient serf' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for helot that I've seen before include "Hotel (anag) - serf" , "downtrodden?" , "Serf of ancient Sparta" , "Greek serf" , "He's bound to land" .)

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate and The Sun.
