The furthest back period of time (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

earliest

(Other definitions for earliest that I've seen before include "Ateliers (anag.)" , "Original or most previous" , "Soonest" , "Very first in a sterile manner" , "Furthest back in time" .)

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