Kowtowed (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

knelt

'kowtowed' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for knelt that I've seen before include "adopted respectful attitude" , "Rest the weight on the knees" , "Genuflected" , "Went down to be knighted?" , "Used hassock maybe" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
