Traditional and contemporary kippahs
 The kippah, or yarmulke, is a small head covering worn by many observant Jews. Wearing a kippah reminds a person that God is above humankind. It is also used to proudly identify oneself as a Jewish person.
Scripturally speaking, only the Kohanim serving in the Temple were required to cover their heads, but for centuries, Jewish law has called for all men to wear a head covering at all times, stating that one must not walk four cubits nor utter a single word of holiness with an uncovered head. Kippahs provide a comfortable way to meet the requirements of the law, and because they are easily recognized as a religious garment, they are suitable to wear in settings where it might be socially unacceptable to wear a hat.
