yamaka
Small religious cap
A yamaka is a small, rounded cap worn by Jewish men as a sign of reverence for God, especially during prayer and religious services, though some wear it at all times.
The spelling yamaka reflects the word's pronunciation; the more traditional transliteration is yarmulke, from Yiddish.
Also called a kippah.
