虎井古沉城 著名考古學家慕名勘查

　　【大紀元8月26日訊】澎湖八景之一「虎井沉城」隱於虎井海域底，有一道狀似城牆，十餘年來，深深的魅惑著人心。以創新人類記憶與文明史觀聞名的國際暢銷作家葛瑞姆‧漢卡克廿五日慕名前來，直指「虎井沉城」約為七千年至一萬年間的人造結構物，若該言屬實，將改寫台灣史前史。

　　中時電子報報導，虎井沉城，早見於澎湖古志書中，當時文人附麗為澎湖八景之一，形容「虎井澄淵」，因從虎井高處俯視，隱於海底有一道狀似城牆，清晰可見，夏季晴天潮水退出，水淺靜而澄澈，故曰「澄淵」。

　　不僅古志書記載，民間對於該不尋常的景觀，亦有各式的傳說，或認為其為荷蘭紅毛酋高文律，於風櫃築砲樓，被俞咨皋砲擊而倒，傾入海為沉城，也有學者懷疑係為磚船沉沒於此所致。但亦有認為屬自然礁石，綿延成一道高五、六公尺，長六、七十公尺的狀似城牆，純屬巧合。

　　而將「虎井沉城」推上國際舞臺，成為海底世界之謎，則當為國內潛水老前輩謝新曦之功了。

　　謝新曦表示民國六十四年時，閱讀「澎湖縣志」關於虎井沉城的記載，便欲一探究竟，不過該區水文複雜，地方稱之為「八卦水域」，即中間水是靜止的，但外圍水卻是滾盪不安，他幾番冒險，終於在民國七十一年找到了正確的位置，當時媒體以「沉城」字樣公布，遂成國際事件，引起考古人士高度的關注。

　　當年日本兒玉先生幾番接洽，欲前往一探究竟，但當年未解嚴、該區屬軍事管制區，根本不得其門而入，直至民國八十五年，日本朝日新聞等媒體，才獲申請成功，前往拍攝記錄。

　　「虎井沉城」畫面在日本曝光，引起相當大之轟動，日本學界不少認為其與琉球御那國海底發現的祭台，有同工異曲之妙，都屬七、八千年巨石文化。而後每隔幾年，便有日本媒體前往拍攝。

　　但台大考古人類學系教授黃士強的看法則較保守謹慎，認為或許屬自然礁岩凝結的成分居多，但對於凹口的十字型，與平整的接砌面，亦感納悶，表示這真是一個未解的謎。

　　英國籍、著有「天之境」，「上帝的指紋」等世界級作品之名作家葛瑞姆‧漢卡克探訪日本御那島海底文明之後，得知澎湖有一類似遺址，遂和謝新曦聯絡上，昨日帶著妻子來到虎井海域探勘。

　　葛瑞姆‧漢卡克等昨日潛水觀察，驚奇讚嘆再三，數度上船換氣瓶，再度潛水仔細觀察，表示從探訪世界各地文明的遺址經驗來推斷，這百分之百當屬人造遺跡，且當為七千年至一萬年之間。
