The capital of Syria (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

damascus

'the capital of syria' is the definition.
(synonyms)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for damascus that I've seen before include "Couple" , "capital city" , "Pauline conversion on the road to here" , "ancient city" , "Syrian capital" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
