History
Nulato was a location for trade between the Koyukon people and Inupiat people of the Kobuk River area before the arrival of Europeans. In 1838, the Russian explorer Malakov established a trading post in Nulato. The Kokukuk River people massacred a large part of the population of Nulato on February 16, 1851, during the Athapaskan uprising. Nulato incorporated as a city in 1963. In 1981, housing was built at a new townsite from present Nulato.
