Goddess found does go round (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

demeter

'goddess' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'found does go round' is the wordplay.
'found' becomes 'met' (synonym).
'does' becomes 'deer' (I've seen this in other clues).
'go round' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'met' put into 'deer' is 'DEMETER'.

(Other definitions for demeter that I've seen before include "Divine female" , "Greek goddess of agriculture" , "Olympian" , "Gr. goddess of agriculture, mother of Persephone" , "Greek goddess of fertility - metered (anag)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
