I don't have any confirmed figures to back this up but I would have to guess it would be the Stapes (aka the stirrup bone) which is the smallest human bone at around 1/4 inch across and sits approximately 1/2 inch behind the eardrum in the middle ear. It is located in a 'pocket' of the skull bone which would offer a lot of protection, plus it is approximately 2 1/2 inches inside the skull so again well protected from possible injury.
