Famous Greek residence near the top of the road
I believe the answer is:
homer
'famous greek' is the definition.
'Homer' can be an answer for 'greek' (Homer is an example). I'm not sure about the 'famous' bit.
'residence near the top of the road' is the wordplay.
'residence' becomes 'home' (home is a kind of residence).
'near the' says to put letters next to each other.
'top of' says to take the initial letters.
The first letter of 'road' is 'r'.
'home'+'r'='HOMER'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for homer that I've seen before include "Old Greek epic poet" , "writer of old" , "Racing pigeon?" , "Ancient Greek author" , "messenger of war?" .)
