Independent chieftain (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

emir

'independent chieftain' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for emir that I've seen before include "Eastern ruler in mire" , "Arabic ruler" , "Islamic chieftain" , "Top man" , "Islamic title" .)

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