Which table holds Cases?

I'm looking to use the REST API to programmatically interact with Cases, can anyone help out with where the relevant data for cases, and responses to cases, is stored so that I can address it using the API?

Hi Guys
Sorry for the delay in replying, just getting round to looking at this now(!) - it's been a busy few months.
 
OK, so I've had some success in querying the REST API sn_customerservice_case table.. I can retrieve cases out of it, but I can't get the notes and other activity items associated with it. Here's one way I get some XML of a case:
 
https://mycompanyname.service-now.com/sn_customerservice_case.do?XML&sys_id={my case sys_id here}
 
The linked article by Jeff Hoffman says that another table sys_journal_field holds the notes, but my SN doesn't seem to have this; I don't see it in my REST API explorer, and if I fire off something like this:
 
https://mycompanyname.service-now.com/sys_journal_field.do?XML&sysparm_query=element_id%3D{my case sys_id here}
 
The response is:
 
<xml/>
 
Any clue how I can get the notes/activities (additional comments/work notes/field changes/emails sent) referenced in the below pic?
