Wild goat in ancient Rome? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

toga

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'ancient rome?' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't see how one could define the other.

'wild goat' is the wordplay.
'wild' indicates anagramming the letters.
'goat' anagrammed gives 'TOGA'.

'in' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for toga that I've seen before include "Roman raiment" , "This ancient robe might get your goat" , "Classical garment" , "piece of old clothing" , "Outer garment" .)
