Coe ordered an Indian? Maybe (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ocean

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'indian? maybe' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'coe ordered an' is the wordplay.
'ordered' indicates anagramming the letters.
'coe' anagrammed gives 'oce'.
'oce'+'an'='OCEAN'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for ocean that I've seen before include "Indian, for example" , "A mighty sea" , "Indian or Arctic, say" , "Very large area of sea" , "Pacific, for example" .)
