Muse of history in myth (4)

I believe the answer is:

clio

(Other definitions for clio that I've seen before include "Muse of history (from Renault?)" , "In Greek and Roman myth, the Muse of history" , "one historically inspiring" , "inspiration for historians" , "1 across's Muse - from Renault?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
