Traps laid for tin god (6)
I believe the answer is:
snares
'traps laid for' is the definition.
'snares' can be an answer for 'traps' ('snare' can be a synonym of 'trap'). I am not certain of the 'laid for' bit.
'tin god' is the wordplay.
'tin' becomes 'Sn' (Sn is the chemical symbol for tin).
'god' becomes 'ares' (Greek god of war).
'sn'+'ares'='SNARES'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for snares that I've seen before include "Traps for catching birds or animals" , "Game traps" , "Traps, enmeshes" , "Lures or entanglements" , "Traps set by Nasser" .)
