Move text about in second list of people's names (6)
I believe the answer is:
scroll
'move text' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'about in second list of people's names' is the wordplay.
'about' becomes 'c' (circa).
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'second' becomes 's' (common abbreviation).
'list of people's names' becomes 'roll' (roll can mean a list or register of names).
's'+'roll'='sroll'
'c' placed within 'sroll' is 'SCROLL'.
(Other definitions for scroll that I've seen before include "Spiral or coiled design" , "Rolled-up document, as one from the Dead Sea perhaps" , "Ancient text" , "Roll of paper or parchment" , "Move text across screen" .)
