The term "kowtow" originates from the Chinese phrase "kòu tóu" (叩头), which means to "knock the head." It historically referred to a ritual of bowing deeply to show respect, often involving touching the forehead to the ground, and was commonly practiced in imperial China, especially when addressing the emperor. The concept has evolved in Western usage to describe excessive subservience or sycophancy.
