Egyptian god transported in a bus (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

anubis

'egyptian god' is the definition.
(Anubis is an example)

'transported in a bus' is the wordplay.
'transported' indicates an anagram.
'in'+'a'+'bus'='inabus'
'inabus' anagrammed gives 'ANUBIS'.

(Other definitions for anubis that I've seen before include "Is a bun about the ancient Egyptian god of the dead" , "one Egyptians thought great" , "Jackal-headed deity" , "Egyptian deity" , "Egypt. jackal-headed god" .)
