A kippah, hech cap (US only), or yarmulke (pronounced Ya-mea-kah) (also called a skullcap or kappel) is a thin, slightly-rounded skullcap traditionally worn at all times by observant Jewish men, and sometimes by both men and women in Conservative and Reform communities.

In modern contexts, it is also common for non-religious Jews and non-Jews to wear a simple kippah to cover their heads as a sign of respect, when present at Jewish religious services or at Jewish sites.
