El Greco's homeland (5)
I believe the answer is:
crete
'el greco's homeland' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for crete that I've seen before include "European location" , "Large Mediterranean island" , "Island whose largest city is Heraklion" , "Large island in Med" , "Largest Greek island" .)
