Question: Is pizza originally Italian or,...?
American?

Answers:

The Ancient Greeks covered their bread with oils, herbs and cheese. The Romans developed placenta, a sheet of flour topped with cheese and honey and flavored with bay leaves. Modern pizza originated in Italy as the Neapolitan pie with tomato. In 1889 cheese was added.

what we consider pizza today has tomatoes on it. So if you mean are all the ingredients originally from Italy, then the answer is no. Tomatoes are a new world fruit and weren't brought to Europe and used in Italian cuisine until well after Columbus discovered the new world in 1492.

Another interesting fact is the chili pepper are also a new world fruit and weren't brought to Asia until there were brought through Europe after 1492

Ancient civilizations have been making flat bread since fire was tamed. Maybe they rolled their foods into the bread... and so maybe the Taco was born before the Pizza!
