Foreigner roaming the Andes endlessly (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dane

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'foreigner' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?

'roaming the andes endlessly' is the wordplay.
'roaming' indicates an anagram.
'endlessly' means to remove the last letter.
'andes' with its last letter taken away is 'ande'.
'ande' is an anagram of 'DANE'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for dane that I've seen before include "Hamlet, say" , "EU citizen" , "invader once" , "See 7 Down" , "Great - - , dog" .)
