History

The original name of Asturias is 'Naghalin', from the word 'lalin', native term (Cebuano) for settlers coming from far places. The first occupants of Asturias came from other Municipalities and neighboring Islands such as Bohol. At first, a portion of Naghalin was part of the Pueblo (town) of Tuburan and the other was a part of the Pueblo (town) of Balamban. Over time, the occupants of Naghalin increased due to both settlers and population growth. Eventually the folks petitioned the then colonial master (Spain) to grant them their own local government. This petition was granted in the late 1700s by the King of Spain, thereby creating the Pueblo (Town) of Asturias.
