This is a short video of a piece of Indian Pottery that we believe that may be over 1000 years old. The purpose of the video is to give some of the experts out there to take a close look and render their opinion.
I believe that it is not an artifact. One glimpse you gave showed a couple of repairs inside. Also, I don't like the patina on it. Just my thinking. . .
No oxides are needed to produce the colours present here. I"m a potter who uses the open pit fire method, and these colours will form naturaly as the wood around the piece burns are varying stages and heat.
That being said virtually everything else you mentioned is a correct appraisal.
I don't believe this to be an authentic piece, most likely one made for the tourist trade in Mexico, maybe somewhere in Texas or the Southwest.
