Former name of Sri Lanka (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ceylon

'former name of sri lanka' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for ceylon that I've seen before include "Sri Lanka's former name" , "Sri Lanka, formerly" , "Old place" , "Former name of Sri Lanka" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian, The Telegraph, the Newsday.com, the Sydney Morning Herald and the Irish Times (Simplex).
