Hothead liable to blow top in Sicily? (4)
I believe the answer is:
etna
'in sicily?' is the definition.
('Etna' is part of 'sicily')
I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for etna that I've seen before include "Volcano in Sicily, quite neat" , "Highest peak in Italy south of the Alps" , "Dangerous peak" , "Volcano; reverse of stake" , "Threatening mountain" .)
