In Arctic ice, Roman consul renowned for eloquence (6)
I believe the answer is:
cicero
'renowned for eloquence' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't understand how one could define the other.
'in arctic ice roman consul' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'CICERO' can be found hidden inside 'arctic ice roman consul'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for cicero that I've seen before include "Famous Roman orator" , "Statesman from Rome" , "Old Roman statesman and orator" , "wartime spy" , "Orator's" .)
