BRIEF HISTORY

Many legends have been attached to the reason why this town had been known as Cabuntog in ancient times. Foremost is the legend of a huge bell in the local Church that when it rings it can be heard as far as the mainland of Mindanao. Its sound allegedly summons the Muslim raiders to its shores. To protect itself against this depredation it was decided to get rid of the bell. They did so by dumping the same at Campujong river. Dumping is “Buntog” in the local dialect hence, the name.

Records however tells a different tale. General Luna, then known as Cabuntog in ancient times, enjoyed a peaceful as well as bloody era. The original inhabitant of the people belongs to the group of people known as the “Caragans” or people from the region known as Caraga. They subsist on fishing and farming.
