Derivation (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

origin

'derivation' is the definition.
(I know that origin is a type of derivation)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for origin that I've seen before include "Where axes cut" , "Place or point of beginning (6)" , "Crossing of axes" , "Source, root" , "Source, derivation" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
