That is one of my favourite events that ever happened in season 2! When I first saw it, I instantly thought that the markings were put there by the former occupants (obviously) as a message of warning, as if they were offering information that would be the key to survival, or perhaps a way off the island. If you look on the Lost Pedia you can see the map more clearly! I already knew that there was other hatches because I saw the episode where they journey back to the Staff (Medical hatch) but I didn't realize there would be that many. The question mark is what got my attention. I suspected that perhaps it was the central hatch: the most advanced and important one of all. When I saw the video I beleived that the Pearl was real and the Swan was just a phycological test. Surprised I was to find out that it was the other way around.

that map is awsome. The "?" makes you heart just beat when you see something like that written on the map. Especially when they see it for real, a Giant ? in the ground, if you look closely at the map, it looks as if all the hatches were being built towards the middle, but where canceled for some reason.

I wonder why some were canceled. Or perhaps they are just incomplete for now and Dharma has every intention of finishing it, or perhaps getting the Island's ihabitance to do that for them. I didn't expect the question mark would be so litteral. Who would go through the trouble of creating that in the first place?

Who knows, yet anyway.
I belive they were canceled because of the Incident, on the map, it states alot of things "canceled" or abandonded after incident.

We don't know what most of them mean yet but we will in time. I'm surprised Locke just didn't try to bring that door down again so he could have a better look at the map.

What about those quotes on the map? like "Aegrescit Medendo" meaning "The remedy is worse than the disease" found next to the medical bunker

People have identified them as philisophical or something but if you noticed, that specific quote about remedies and such is right next to the staff, the medical station. Hint Sut Dracones, Here be Dragons, could mean the Others are there, and it is right next to where the Pearl? is written.

Strange. You would think that something like that would be close to the flame. I had better look at that map again. It's been a while since I gave it a good look.

Theres also : "The wrath of the gods may be great, but certainly is slow"
You can see all the Latin quotes from the map on my sig.

Sursum Corda means Lift up Your Heart. Desmond said, "You got to lift it up!" to Jack when he sprained his ankle in the stadium.

Yes, between the Staff and the crossed out station, possibly the Door.
