History
Tunasan was called "Tunasancillo" during the Spanish colonial period, and it was a barrio and also a part of the vast hacienda owned by the Augustinian Recollects in the pueblo or town of San Pedro Tunasan in the province of La Laguna. San Pedro Tunasan was annexed to Biñan in 1903. Eventually, the barrio became part of Muntinlupa, which was then part of Taguig in the province of Rizal when San Pedro Tunasan sold it in 1907 during the American period. After the separation, San Pedro Tunasan changed its name to San Pedro and the sold barangay of Tunasancillo was renamed Tunasan.
