The name Bulungan came from the Bulungan word Bulu Tengon which means 'real bamboo'. Due to the change in the Malay dialect, it changed to "Bulungan". The importance of the bamboo in the Bulungan identity stems from a boy born out of the bamboo named Jauwiru. From Jauwiru's descendants, the Bulungan Sultanate was born.
Bulungan was a vassal of Berau, which in turn was a vassal of Kingdom of Kutai. During subsequent wars, the territory fell into the hands of Brunei and after agreements were made with the Sultanate of Sulu, the territory officially came under Sulu control.
