澎湖地名之旅Part68 挽門 潭門
你是澎湖人，如果有人問你「挽毛潭」在那裡，你可知道？從明朝永曆年間開始，望安鄉潭門港就叫「挽毛潭」了。
相傳，由於古代交通不便，望安島的婦女要去一趟安平或馬公非常困難，而婦女要出遠門最重要的一件事是化妝，古代婦女的化妝，主要是用兩條細線交叉，將臉上的汗毛夾掉，叫做「挽面」或「挽毛」。
婦女們唯恐船提前開航，就提早到港口一邊等船，一邊「挽毛」化妝，日子久了，婦女們在港口「挽毛」的畫面一再出現，人們就叫它「挽毛潭」了。
先民所以叫「潭」而不叫「港」，是因為先民看到港口呈半月形狀，就習慣叫「潭」。清朝初期，官府規劃港口名稱叫「澳」，所以「挽毛潭」也叫「挽毛潭澳」。康熙二十二年，澎湖「水師」（海軍）在「挽毛潭」部屬軍隊時，可能是為了方便稱呼，就將「挽毛潭」改為「挽門汛」。
「挽毛」與「挽門」閩南話同音，「汛」是指防禦據點。到了民國三十九年六月，縣府在「挽毛潭」興建港口時，已叫「潭門港」了。
清朝時代的「挽門汛」，是一處較大型的軍防據點，是個重要軍港，設砲台一座，戰船一艘，「汛兵」（常駐士兵）二十八人，「配兵」（換防士兵）五十人，還在附近的將軍島設「分防」。
「挽毛潭」所以如此重要，是因為「八罩巡檢司」（清朝時代望安地方政府）及「網垵澳」（類似現在的鄉公所）都設在「網垵社」（今東、西安村）。
自明朝永曆年間就叫「挽毛潭」，據先民代代相傳的說法是，與鄭成功於永曆十五年（1661）二月初率軍登陸「八罩」，士兵們看到有婦女在潭門港口「挽毛」化妝有關。
