澎湖地名之旅Part39隘勇．隘門　

　　在台灣本島，漢人屯墾周邊海隔三、五里，就搭蓋一幢茅屋當做「隘門」（就像現在軍營四周的衛兵崗哨），每個「隘門」都有「隘勇」輪流守衛。

　　澎湖島上，由於官府未規畫屯墾區，設置「隘門」的主要因素是防範「倭寇」（日本海賊）及本國海盜登陸搶劫。

　　「隘勇」又叫「隘丁」，「勇」是民兵，「丁」，是成年男子；在古代，凡是成年男子都必須接受官府徵召，去做某種義務勞動，叫做「徭役」。

　　「隘勇」，就是官府徵召來做「隘門民兵」，擔負守衛「隘門」的任務；「隘丁」，也是由官府徵召來協助「隘勇」的，與徭役相同。

　　「隘丁」的任務是：晚上在「隘」的周邊巡邏。

　　澎湖的「隘門」所以設在馬公本島東部，因為明朝時代「倭寇」橫行台灣水道，常登陸澎湖劫財劫色，通常都是從馬公本島東部海岸登陸的緣故。

　　相傳，明朝嘉靖年間，「倭寇」本來是要從馬公本島東部海岸登陸的，但是當賊船在今林投海岸靠岸時，即被守衛「隘門」的「隘勇」發現，立即擊鼓敲鑼，發動「隘丁」將「倭寇」趕走。

　　但是，來自東洋的「倭寇」並未因此罷休，賊船離開林投海岸後向南開，一口氣開到七美島，由於島上未設防衛設施及人員，因而順利登陸，七美人投井殉節就是這批「倭寇」幹的，三百年來，這個故事仍然膾炎人口。

　　在明朝時代，馬公本島東部就設置「隘門」了，地點可能是今林投與隘門村之間的坡地，「隘門」這個地名可說是歷史悠久了。

　　由於明朝朝延不重視澎湖，邊防萎縮，行政管理時設時撤，三百年來，人們大多不知當年湖西鄉的確實行政區域名稱，倖好遺留了「隘門」這個地名可供查證。
