Land of the Rising Sun (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

light

japan

'land of the rising sun' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for japan that I've seen before include "Land of the Rising Sun" , "East Asian country" , "Twelve [VARNISH]" , "Glossy, black varnish; country" , "East Asian island nation" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald and The Irish Times.
