How did I get a Submit for Approval button?

I created a custom object and a Submit for Approval button appeared on it that I can't remove from the page layout.  I have no approval processes linked to it, no approval history, no Visualforce.  It's tangentially linked to Contracts, but I have three layers of custom master-detail objects linked to Contracts where the Submit button is not present.  The lowest level object in that hierarchy has a lookup to the object in question, but there are no lookups or master-detail fields on the object with the button.  Frustratingly, all users see the button, even the ones who only have read access to the records.

What on earth did I do to make this button appear and how do I get rid of it?

Oh, crazy.  I must have tried to drag that button off the screen five times.  I tried it one more time before I took the screenshots and it worked this time.  I think I wasn't dragging it far enough.  I'm glad it was easy.  Thanks for forcing me to try one more time!
