Finished having ancient city tolerated (7)
I believe the answer is:
endured
'tolerated' is the definition.
('endure' can be a synonym of 'tolerate')
'finished having ancient city' is the wordplay.
'finished' becomes 'ended' ('end' can be a synonym of 'finish').
'having' indicates putting letters inside.
'ancient city' becomes 'ur' (ancient Sumerian city state).
'ended' enclosing 'ur' is 'ENDURED'.
(Other definitions for endured that I've seen before include "Red nude (anag.)" , "Patiently suffered" , "Withstood" , "Put up with something" , "Carried on" .)
