If you'd posted a photo of the item itself, we could have told you the item is Japanese and marked Satsuma without even seeing the mark.

I would be careful about the ancient thing, these days there is a lot of this type of thing coming on to the market with the paint still wet :)

Satsuma ware is not ancient; at best it's antique, with earliest pieces dating to Meiji, and with much on the market today dating 1920s-30s.

 

There are modern copies, so-called Chinese Satsuma, but they usually don't bear that mark and are usually easily distinguished from Japanese Satsuma.
