Savagery: it's seen in North African region (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

barbarity

'savagery' is the definition.
(I know that savagery can be written as barbarity)

'it's seen in north african region' is the wordplay.
'seen in' is an insertion indicator.
'north african region' becomes 'barbary' (I've seen this in another clue).
'it' inserted inside 'barbary' is 'BARBARITY'.

(Other definitions for barbarity that I've seen before include "A savagely cruel act" , "Savage and cruel behaviour" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
