His Pilgrim was Christian (6)
I believe the answer is:
bunyan
This might be a double definition.
'his pilgrim' is the first definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer. I also know that 'pilgrim' relates to this answer.
'christian' is the second definition.
Both the definition and answer are singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'was' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for bunyan that I've seen before include "The Pilgrim's Progress author, d. 1688" , "author John" , "Writer" , "John . . . . . . wrote 'The Pilgrim's Progress'" , "Paul -, US mythic hero" .)
