Ridiculous! Poor Inca a rogue? (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

picaroon

'a rogue?' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'ridiculous poor inca' is the wordplay.
'ridiculous' indicates anagramming the letters.
'poor'+'inca'='poorinca'
'poorinca' anagrammed gives 'PICAROON'.

(Other definitions for picaroon that I've seen before include "Pirate" , "rogue" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
