摘要
2014年菲律宾大法官卡皮奥(Antonio T.Capio)举办了菲律宾地图展《历史真实与谎言"(Historical Truths and Lies about Scarborough Shoal in Ancient Maps)》,要用西方古地图来说明黄岩岛是菲律宾的领土。卡皮奥将1636年马特乌斯·梅里安绘制的地图中在吕宋岛西海域中的一个岛屿确定为今天的黄岩岛,并且得到菲律宾官方的支持和西方媒体的宣传。本文通过现代地理信息GIS中的套叠法,以及意大利大地图学家达德利的地图证明,该岛不是黄岩岛,而是在后来的地图中消失了的"北岛",且该岛的地理坐标是东经119°,北纬17°,位于黄岩岛东北220余公里以外的海面上。笔者同时证明该岛屿是葡萄牙人首先发现,荷兰制图学家首先命名,此前的地图均用拉丁文,卡皮奥所称该岛是菲律宾前宗主国西班牙的军事设施没有任何根据。
In 2014,a Map Gallery 'Historical Truths and Lies about Scarborough Shoal in Ancient Maps'held by a Philippine judge named Antonio T. Capio in the Philippines,exhibiting western ancient maps to claim Philippines' s sovereignty over Scarborough Shoal. Judge Capio declared an island west to Luzon Island in the map made by Matthaus Merian in 1636 as today' s Scarborough Shoal. His opinion was then supported by the Philippine government and publicized by the western media.Through Overlay Analysis and with the evidence of Dudley' s map,the paper proved that the island is not what we call Scarborough Shoal today,but the vanished'North Island'( 119° E,17° N),which is located at a place over 220 kilometers northeast to Scarborough Shoal. The author also wanted to verify that the 'North Island'was discovered by the Portuguese and named by a Dutch cartographer. But there is still no evidence supporting Capio' s opinion that the island was a military facility belonging to Spain,the suzerain of the Philippines.
