Persian governor (6)

I believe the answer is:

satrap

'persian governor' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for satrap that I've seen before include "Old head" , "Persian provincial governor" , "despotic ruler" , "petty tyrant" , "Old Persian ruler" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times, the Wall Street Journal, the Thinks.com and The Telegraph.
