State home attended by lady of the hunt? (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

indiana

'state' is the definition.
(Indiana is an example)

'home attended by lady of the hunt?' is the wordplay.
'home' becomes 'in' ('he's home' can mean 'he's in').
'attended by' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'lady of the hunt?' becomes 'diana' (Greek goddess).
'in'+'diana'='INDIANA'

(Other definitions for indiana that I've seen before include "US Midwest state" , "Vice President Pence's state" , "state of America" , "___ Jones, Harrison Ford hero - US state" , "Character associated with the Temple of Doom" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
