From Wikipedia (A never-to-be doubted source):
A *Bermuda carriage bell* is a bowl-sized bell with a pleasant tone. It
is rung by means of a plunger button stemming from the center top of the
bell.^[1]
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bermuda_carriage_bell#cite_note-1>
Originally, the bell was mounted on the floor of a vehicle and operated
by foot as a warning for pedestrians.
A Bermuda carriage bell was also used to provide the Daily Double
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daily_double> sound effect
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_effect> on the original version of
/Jeopardy! <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeopardy!>/ hosted by Art
Fleming <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Art_Fleming>.^[/citation needed
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed>/]
^All I remember is it wasLOUD!
