Oh I see, it's now hidden inside the recent tabs button.

This is part of New design,yes we moved History from Menu
Components: -UI UI>Browser>History
Labels: Hotlist-Chrome-Home

To elaborate, we moved History inside the new Chrome Home surface. When the toolbar is at the bottom, if you pull up on the toolbar you will see a surface containing your most visited tiles and article suggestions. You will also a see a navigation bar at the bottom, containing a history icon. If you tap the history icon you will see your history.

I hate this constant swinging top to bottom throughout the day of where I
am supposed to enter things... and wish all this was consistent with
Desktop: keep URL entry at the top.

What if someone decided to redesign the keyboard, and put spacebar at
top?

Yes maybe one day I will discover those places, for now I just tap what
I see: menu dots.

But all this is besides the point.

Anyways one would think Recent Tabs would be a part of History, and not the
other way around.
