Writer of histories and annals of the Roman Empire (7)

I believe the answer is:

tacitus

(Other definitions for tacitus that I've seen before include "Writer" , "Roman historian, annalist" , "Old historian" , "Old history master" , "Roman politician and historian" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
