Woman of Indian ancestry (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

diana

'woman' is the definition.

'of indian ancestry' is the wordplay.
'of' indicates a hidden word.
'DIANA' is hidden within 'indian ancestry'.

(Other definitions for diana that I've seen before include "Dame - Rigg, actress" , "British princess" , "Roman equivalent of Artemis" , "Roman goddess of the moon and hunting" , "Roman goddess of the hunt, or tragic English princess" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
