虎井沉城三百多年沉城之謎依舊是謎

　　位於馬公內海的虎井嶼，曾是二次大戰日軍南進指揮所，偷襲珍珠港的「虎、虎、虎」代號，即是以虎井為名，除了軍事戰略地位重要之外，相傳虎井有海底沉城的傳說，也相傳三百多年，古籍上以「虎井澄淵」列澎湖八景之一，時也是重要歷史謎團。

　　清道光年間就有虎井沉城的歷史記載，與澎籍進士蔡廷蘭交好的翰林院編修周凱，以虎井沉城為題作詩，隨後光緒十九年編修的澎湖廳誌，則記載「虎井嶼東南港中沉一小城，周圍可數十丈，磚石紅色、每當秋水澄鮮，漁人俯視波底，堅垣壁立，雉　隱隱可數，有善水者，沒入海底，移時或立城　上，或近城趁魚蝦之屬。言之鑿鑿，但不知何故沉沒。」

　　另外，前國民黨主席連戰祖父連橫所著的台灣通史，則指出虥井沉城為「虎井嶼東南，周可數十丈，隋代所建也，漁者常得其磚，色紅若堅鐵，似千數百年物，天空浪靜，望之在目，文獻為徵，縉紳之士難言。」除了虎井沉城成謎之外，建成年代，地理位置也出現各家說法，有人援以連橫說法，指稱為隋代所建，因海嘯或地震入海，或稱為元代所建，也是因天災震入海底，另有一則指出，為當年明兵攻打荷蘭人，將紅毛城埋火葯炸之，地點則有兩處，一說在虎井嶼海岸，一說在蒔裡海岸。

　　十多年來追縱虎井沉城的潛水家謝新曦，由年少追到白髮蒼蒼，希望能解開虎井沉城的歷史謎團，謝新曦心中一直抱持著理想，虎井古沉城好像柏拉圖所稱的「亞特生提斯」，消失的大陸洲，執著一步一腳印築夢，相較於謝新曦的執著，另一派地質學者則認為，虎井古沉城其實為虎井，桶盤當地柱狀玄武岩節沉海，一般漁民緛覺的訛傳，百年歷史謎團，至今仍無定論，但謝仍強調「人生有夢、築夢踏實」的理念風格。

虎井沉城

虎井澄淵有史揚　通紅城壁水晶鄉

幾番探訪疑猶在　留與兒孫道晚涼

<陳國彥>

沈城自古美名揚　虎井人言有水鄉

底事紅毛心血建　只今永伴碧波涼

又：

傳聞虎井有沈城　自古誰人看得明

海底幽深潮起落　紅牆隱隱水中迎

<陳鼎盛>
