After that, it POints out that the formaer representing the colony of coral reef are general place names and the latter representing the individual coral reefs are particular place names. Both of them set up the place name system of the South China Sea islands in ancient China. It also POints out that it is the Chinese People who first name the South China Sea islands before west colonialists invaded the islands, and nine place names of itu Aha, Namyit island, Sincowe islands, Subi Reef, Lankian Cay, London Reef, Passukeak, Thitu island, and Duncan Island, which were used by the west coloniali are transliteration place names of Chinese folk place names, Lastly, the paper draw the conclussion that the namenclature of the South China Sea Islands in ancient China provide the strongist evidence that the South China Sea islands are parts of China.展开更多
