old ribbed yellow ware pottery bowl or cachepot, vintage Z mark

Antique yellow ware pottery bowl or pot, 6 1/2" across the rim, about 3 1/4" deep. This is marked on the bottom with a marking we're not familar with... possibly Zanesville? The general feel of the piece is right, though we generally find very few pieces with Zanesville marks.

It's in very nice condition overall, a discolored marker's flaw to the bowl interior, but no chips or cracks, and no staining.
