Crossword Genius

God of zero supplicants (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

eros

'god' is the definition.
(Eros is an example)

'of zero supplicants' is the wordplay.
'of' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'EROS' can be found hidden inside 'zero supplicants'.

(Other definitions for eros that I've seen before include "Piccadilly 14 ac statue" , "Rose for the love-god" , "Orbiter" , "asteroid four hundred and thirty three" , "Winged god of love" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
