    Binangonan's exact origins are unknown, though several theories exist. It may be derived from Tagalog words meaning "a place where something has voluntarily risen." Most place names in the area are pure Tagalog, suggesting settlements pre-dated Spanish rule. Some historians theorize settlers originated from a place called "Binangonan de Lampon" in a nearby town. Evidence also indicates Negrito tribes who once lived in a place called Batasin in a neighboring town may be ancestors of the few remaining Negrito groups in Binangonan, as the town was inhabited by Aetas until 1928.

    Brief Origin
    A number of theories has been advanced on the origin of Binangonan yet none could exactly point the real beginning
    of this town. Some observations can be noted thus:
    a. Binangonan is a pure Tagalog word for the place where someting or someone has voluntarily risen.
    b. All barangays and sitios from Tayuman to Talim, with the exception of Janosa, have pure Tagalog names
    indicating that these places could have existed even before the Spanish rule.
    c. A village in Infanta, Laguna was called Binangonan de Lampon which led some historians to theorize that
    settlers of the lake region could have originated from this place.
    d. The history of Taytay includes a place called Batasin whose inhabitants were believed to be the ancestors of
    the few remaining tribes of Negritoes. There is no Batasin in Taytay at present but there is one in Binangonan.
    Aetas inhabited Binangonan  until 1928. Evidence of their culture are found in Lungga Ita in Pila-pila and in Aeta
    words like Wawa and Ithan.
