Heathen god of flocks and herds around Georgia (5)
I believe the answer is:
pagan
'heathen' is the definition.
(both can mean an irreligious person)
'god of flocks and herds around georgia' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'and' could be 'n' (common abbreviation for 'and') and 'n' is located in the answer.
'georgia' could be 'ga' (abbreviation for the US state) and 'ga' is found in the answer.
The remaining letters 'pa' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for pagan that I've seen before include "One outside the main religions" , "Heathen; non-believer" , "Polytheist" , "One who does not acknowledge your god(s)" , "Infidel" .)
