Delft Island Fort (also known as Neduntheevu fort and "Meekaman / Meegaaman fort"; (タミル語:நெடுந்தீவுக் கோட்டை); (シンハラ語:ඩෙල්ෆ් බලකොටුව)) was built by the Portuguese on the island of Neduntheevu in the Palk Straight in northern Sri Lanka. Later, it was taken over by Dutch, who built a barrack nearby. The island known to the Portuguese as ''Ilha das Vacas'', was renamed by the Dutch as ''Delft Island''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Delft Island Fort )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Serenity pervades Delft Island )〕 The fort was constructed out of limestone and coral.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Scenic beauty and historical significance of Delft Island )〕 Though now in ruins, Ralph Henry Bassett describes the fort as a "very strongly fortified fort" in his book ''Romantic Ceylon: Its History, Legend, and Story''.〔 == References ==
