Goddess reportedly in chains (5)
I believe the answer is:
ceres
'goddess' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
I can't explain the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for ceres that I've seen before include "Roman goddess; dwarf planet" , "Dwarf planet; goddess of agriculture" , "Corn-goddess" , "Roman goddess of corn" , "Head of agriculture" .)
