A cowl or hood-like head covering; also a variant spelling of cuculle or capuche.
From Old French cucufe or chuche, related to Latin cucullus (hood). Medieval variants often existed in different regions and spellings.
Medieval fabric sources show that 'cucupha' and similar hooded garments had different regional names depending on where you were—your hood's name changed as much as the accent you spoke.
