澎湖地名之旅Part70 花崗石島 花嶼
先民取「花嶼」作地名，島上卻沒有花，令後代子孫不知所以然。但是，這是個誤會，先民並無意取「花」這個字為地名，而是由於島上的土石性質，與大陸東南沿岸相同，島上有花崗石，先民取地名時，可能嫌以「花崗石嶼」作地名太長，因而簡縮為「花嶼」。
自清朝、日據時期到光復後，「花嶼」這個地名都沒有更改，清朝叫花嶼社，日據時期叫花嶼鄉，光復後叫望安鄉花嶼村。
島上「天湖宮」供祀李王爺及魯王，都是屬於古代「千歲」級的朝官，也是典型的海神，長久以來，澎湖漁民的「迎王」與「送王」都是最大型的廟會。
清朝乾隆三十二年（1767），花嶼居民約有五百多人，一直到民國六十八年的二個世紀裡，花嶼人口外流不多，主因是當地海域盛產魚類，足供島上居民謀生。
島上以伍姓族群較多，澎湖九十幾個村落，唯有花嶼居民姓伍，據「同安縣志」記載，泉、漳二洲的城市裡姓伍的人家不多，主要多居住在泉、漳沿海地區，世代以捕魚為業。
其實花嶼島上並非完全無花，至少可以看到抗風耐旱的天人菊。
