Egyptian capital (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cairo

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">egyptian capital</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(capital of Egypt)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for cairo that I've seen before include "Capital of Egypt" , "African city" , "Port upstream from the Nile delta" , "Egyptian capital" , "City near the Nile delta" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald, the Evening Standard, the LA Times, the Newsday, the Universal and the USA Today.
