元世祖忽必烈征爪哇及其与泉州港的关系

The Conquest of Java by Kublai Khan and Its Relationship with Quanzhou Port

至元二十九年(1292年),元世祖忽必烈发兵征爪哇[1],这不仅在中国历史上是一件大事,在东南亚历史上也是一件影响巨大的事件,即使放在13世纪的世界史上,也算得上是一件不容忽略的事件。由于《元史》明确记载远征爪哇的军队是从泉州后渚港出发[2],因此这场远征与泉州有着密不可分的联系。下面就有关史料对元世祖征爪哇的史事及其与泉州港的关系略作考证分析,以求教方家。

The conquest of Java by Kublai Khan happened in the 29th year of Yuan Dynasty(1292 AD).The Chronicle of Yuan Dynasty had documented this conquest as“Kublai Khan not only conquered the enemies on the continent,but also started the wars with the seigniors oversea,within the wars the conquest of Java is the biggest”.The conquest has its significant influence on Chinese history,the Southeast Asia’s history,as well as the world history in 13th century.The document recorded the army was departed from Quanzhou Port.Therefore the oversea conquest was closely related to Quanzhou Port.This article has listed the historical documentaries of the conquest and analyzed the relationship between the conquest and Quanzhou Port.
