Ancient music halls crossword clue
77 Across · WSJ Crossword, September 4, 2026 · 4 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Ancient music halls” is ODEA. It appears as 77 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of September 4, 2026, a Friday puzzle titled “AI Slop” by Christopher Youngs, and it fills 4 squares running left to right from row 12, column 4 of the 21×21 grid.
The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with O and ends with A, and contains 3 vowels and 1 consonant. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Friday puzzles are the Journal’s contest crosswords with a hidden meta answer, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
