#2I'm proud that I managed to guess it, it's a Phrygian cap.

does the bashed forage cap of the civil war era also pay dues to this?

#4Or maybe the artist was inspired by the connection of the Phrygian cap with psychedelic "liberty cap" mushrooms (Psilocybe semilanceata), which are distributed widely across Europe and associated with elves, fairies and various other wee folk?

#5Fun random fact, the tool used to animate the smurfs hats in 3 out of 4 CG smurfs films, was actually created for Doctor Manhattan’s junk for the original Watchmen film.

I don't know but their houses are definitely amanita muscaria.

The conspiracy theories I have heard:
- Gargamel is a priest, the smurfs are prosecuted by the church
- Papa smurf wears red and has a beard because of ideological reasons, the smurfs political and economic system resembles communism
- Smurfs represent the seven deadly sins/seven capital vices

#9Smurfs are most probably bald, as discussed in this thread on a good old fashioned forum:

And my unopular opinion is that Smurfette is most probably wearing a wig.

#10This is almost certainly completely wrong, the smurfs get their hat designs from the type of hats that gnomes and dwarves and goblins usually wear in germanic folklore, the most well known of all being the garden dwarves, whose design also inspired the dwarves in snow white. The design of garden dwarves is quite recent and apparently come from miners. The hats were filled with straw to protect the miner's head from the ceiling.
