虎井沉城 日人想探索
日本考古學者專程來台，對傳統中的澎湖沈城，預作先遣考察，預定明年再組潛水隊一探究竟
記者張銘隆∕台北報導
是人文遺跡？還是大自然的惡作劇？澎湖「虎井沈城」的傳說沈寂多年後，再度引起了日本考古學者的興趣，日方的先遣隊昨天到訪台灣直奔澎湖現場，明年將再組織潛水考察隊，專程來印證台灣的沈城和日本南方群島中的沈城傳說有什麼不同。
曾經考察日本琉球和與那國島「海底沈城」和海底鐘乳石洞的日本琉球大學理學部教授木村政昭及日本衛視（JDC）取材班等四人，昨天中午從東京專程到訪台北，由台北海豚潛水資深教練謝新曦陪同，從桃園入境後即直接轉台北松山機場，搭機飛往澎湖。
由於日本在本世紀七粼年代，也曾有多次在沖繩島及琉球群島喜界、粟國、慶良間及與那國等島嶼周圍海域發現「海底沈城」事件，在業餘潛水調查和民間傳說中記錄到多處極似人為建築物的殘蹟。曾經參與多次調查的木村聽到台灣「虎井沈城」的傳說，即發動日本衛視組成探察隊，並於今天先到台灣進行前覘作業。
澎湖虎井沈城的傳說從清末即曾出現在「台灣通史」的文獻中，也一直流傳在當地民間，民國七十年並曾一度引起社會關切，曾有不下廿次的潛水探索，不過，至今尚未有正式科考探察的結論。依據當時參與周邊考據的學者指出，澎湖信史期並沒有虎井嶼築城的記錄可尋，不過，地質史可以證明，史前時期的台灣、澎湖土地據信與大陸相聯，從澎湖周邊海底也曾撈出石斧等人類遺物，虎井沈城 或許是史前人類建築也說不定。
關於澎湖虎井沈城的傳說，日本朝日新聞也曾於民國八十五年組隊來台探索，不過，當時由於颱風影響，僅對「城牆」規模做了記錄，並未進一步發掘研究。
木村教授等昨天由觀光局澎管處接待，並安排參訪當地和考古及沈城相關的資料，今天上午將往虎井嶼訪談當地父老，探聽有關虎井沈城的傳說，如果天候許可，也將乘船從水面觀察，明年四月中旬再專程組隊進行潛水探察。以進一步暸解「沈城」真貌。
