"Down" direction on a map (5)

I believe the answer is:

south

(Other definitions for south that I've seen before include "Compass point" , "Cardinal point" , "Card player" , "Direction to the right of sunrise" , "1949 musical by Rodgers and Hammerstein, made into a film in 1958" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
