Nope, it dates back to the English colonial period.  Catsup is a anglicized 
version of the name of the original.  I forget where I
read about it and they had something about it on TV about it a while
ago.  But it is most definitely indian, I just forget the original
name of the indian dish...it was more like a chutney until it came over here 
to the states and didn't really become a puree until
late 19thC.
