The largest asteroid and the first to be discovered (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ceres

(Other definitions for ceres that I've seen before include "chief of agriculture" , "Roman goddess of corn" , "Corn-goddess" , "Roman goddess of agriculture" , "The largest asteroid" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
