Kasaysayan ng Lucban Ang pangalang Lucban ay hinango sa Lucban, isang terminong Ilokano na siya namang tawag sa puno ng Pomelo. Noong unang panahon, tatlong mangangaso na nagmula sa Majayjay, Laguna na nagngangalang Marcos Tigla, Luis Gumba at Lucas Manawa ang naligaw sa hilagang kanlurang bahagi ng Bundok Banahaw. Habang nagpapahinga sa lilim ng isang kahoy, nakakita sila ng isang uwak sa kahoy. Naniniwala silang malas ang uwak kung kaya't lumipat sila sa ibang lugar at muling nagpahinga.
