Age-old (7)

I believe the answer is:

archaic

(Other definitions for archaic that I've seen before include "Ancient or out of date" , "Belonging to former or ancient times" , "Very old or old-fashioned" , "Ancient, no longer current" , "Belonging to former times, perhaps word usage" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
