"The leg of the table"

I'm surprised to find that there is no specific name for the leg of the table or chair. Carpentry is an old profession, older than Jesus even, shouldn't they at least come up with a word for it? I have yet to a word to describe the leg of a table maybe if I can find the latin words for table and foot/leg/hold/holdder, combine the two words then anglicize it then I can come up with a word.
