Bungaja (Dvorani) is in the municipality of Suhareka. A historical document from 1465 mentions the settlement. An Ottoman register from 1530 documents the settlement under the form Ajdvoran with 35 households and 15 unmarried men.
A historical document from 1560 mentions the settlement. A later register from 1893 documents the settlement under the form Idvoran. For 1998–99, the source documents burning by Serbian forces. In Osmani’s interpretation, archaeological traces include older burial grounds.
