Capital on the Nile (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

'capital on the nile' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for cairo that I've seen before include "Port upstream from the Nile delta" , "African city" , "North African capital" , "Egypt's capital" , "Capital city on the Nile" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times, the Universal, the USA Today, the Newsday, The Mirror, The Wall Street Journal and the King Feature Syndicate.
