Deity seen in sombreros (4)
I believe the answer is:
eros
'deity' is the definition.
(Eros is an example)
I don't understand the rest of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for eros that I've seen before include "One worshipped" , "Greek god of love - see statue in Piccadilly" , "Group of instincts" , "Statue of love-god in Piccadilly Circus in London" , "God of love; life instinct (Freud)" .)
