Dismissed start of Roman era in fury (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

outrage

'fury' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'dismissed start of roman era' is the wordplay.
'dismissed' becomes 'out' (I've seen this before**).
'start of' suggests taking the first letters.
'era' becomes 'age' (I've seen this before).
The initial letter of 'roman' is 'r'.
'out'+'r'+'age'='OUTRAGE'

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for outrage that I've seen before include "Shocked anger" , "Very angry reaction" , "Violate" , "Barbarity" , "Gross injury" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
