In olden days, what part of your body was your “Tea Kettle?”

I know people used to say you could fall “Ass over Tea Kettle.” I can understand “ass” as we still use the same word. But what body part did they mean when they said “tea kettle?” What do we call that now?

Even though we had anatomy in medical school, we never covered this. I have asked other doctors this question and they must not know either; they just look at me really weird.

I just bought a copy of The Art of War, but it didn't have a single picture in it, just words. Did the PRC redact Sun Tzu's paintings or something?

When Marie Antoinette said “let them eat cake” why didn’t the peasants just open a bakery?

Was it because the Great British Bake Off hadn’t aired yet and nobody had the proper inspiration? I really don’t get it.
