Egyptian port mentioned (4)
I believe the answer is:
said
I believe this is a double definition.
'egyptian port' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'mentioned' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)
(Other definitions for said that I've seen before include "Averred" , "Stated" , "Announced; Egypt. Port" , "Uttered at Suez port" , "Expressed orally" .)
