Capital of Syria (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

damascus

'capital of syria' is the definition.
(synonyms)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for damascus that I've seen before include "Pauline conversion on the road to here" , "Capital of Syria" , "St Paul was converted on the road to this Syrian city" , "ancient city" , "Middle East capital" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times, The Mirror, The Sunday Times and The Telegraph.
