Shalom, A few weeks ago a friend asked me about the origin "Yarmulke." The search has been fascinating. The August issue of the Librarian's Lobby is double my usual length and is only part 1 of the article. I examine the origin of the word. If you have any questions or comments, don't hesitate to send them. This is my 100th column. Please spread the word.
