Island nation south of Sicily (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

malta

'island nation south of sicily' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for malta that I've seen before include "small island" , "The capital is Valetta" , "Mediterranean island state" , "A Med. island" , "detached dwelling place" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
