I've had some conversations with the Chabad group. They are the severely crazy end.
I've seen that exact same hat on some of the Easter Island statues - proof that the Easter Islanders are Hebrew, descendants of Hagoth and the Nephites. My testimony feels so much better now!
Also interesting (alas in a serious way) is the elongated ear lobes. Throughout Southeast Asia and as far north as China, there is a superstition that long lobes indicate long life, good fortune, and financial success. The statutes on Easter Island indicate the Austronesian origins of its settlers.
