A kippah (/kɪˈpɑː/ kih-PAH; also spelled as kippa, kipa, kipah; Hebrew: כִּיפָּה, plural: כִּיפּוֹת kippot; Yiddish: קאפל‎ koppel or יאַרמולקע) or yarmulke (/ˈjɑːrməlkə/, pronunciation /ˈjɑːməkə/) is a brimless cap, usually made of cloth, worn by male Jews to fulfill the customary requirement held by Orthodox halachic authorities that the head be covered. It is usually worn by men in Orthodox communities at all times, and according to Pewforum.org, up to 82% of the people who wear kippot identify as Orthodox.[1] Most synagogues and Jewish funeral services keep a ready supply of kippot.
