Just to clarify:
Are you asking for the mekor in the gemara as to covering one’s head.
Or, are you asking when yidden actually started covering their heads as part of normative halacha since the gemara implies it’s a middus chassidus rather than compulsory while SA paskens it’s compulsory.
Or, is this a question about the round little kippa that people wear today. That was not what head coverings looked like through the ages.
