Baden culture graves and ceramics (bowls, anthropomorphic urns) were found in the village.{{Cite web|url=http://www.rastko.rs/arheologija/srejovic/dsrejovic-eneolit.html|title = [Projekat Rastko] Dragoslav Srejovic: Kulture bakarnog i ranog bronzanog doba na tlu Srbije}}

The town originally consisted of a hamlet named Siga, next to which a fort called Šanac was built in the early-18th Century. (At the time this was part of the Austrian frontier with the Ottoman Empire.) In 1752, Count Perlas, president the administration of the Banat and treasurer for the province of Timisoara, founded a new village just outside the fort, which he named after himself. Early settlers were Serbs from elsewhere in the region, Germans, Croats, Slovaks and Hungarians, many of whom were employed as border guards.http://perlez-info.blogspot.com {{User-generated source|date=August 2022}}

Following the Treaty of Trianon the region shifted from Hungarian to Yugoslav administration and the town's name was changed to Perlez, accordingly.

This village had a small community of Croats, that lived in compact part of the village; they have been slowly but evidently in large amounts assimilated. Still, this assimilation has never drawn the attention of Croat parties in Serbia.{{in lang|sr}} [http://www.danas.rs/20060321/terazije1.html Danas] Sporovi nikome nisu potrebni, Mar 21, 2006 {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090713172950/http://www.danas.rs/20060321/terazije1.html |date=July 13, 2009 }}

The "Matić farm", located near the confluence of the Bega into the Tisza, preserves the old and autochthonous breeds of cattle. It has a small herd of the Podolian cattle and since the mid 2000s, the herd of domesticated water buffalo was formed. Buffalos, descendants of the river buffalo, arrived in the modern Vojvodina region in the 5th century with the Huns. Historical records show that they were still being kept in the 15th century, but died out from the region later.{{Citation | author = Đuro Đukić | title = Pored Tise i Begeja goveda iz srednjeg veka | trans-title = Cattle from the Middle Ages near the Tisza and Bega | newspaper = Politika | page = 23 | language = Serbian | date = 4 November 2017 | url = http://www.politika.rs/sr/clanak/392136/Pored-Tise-i-Begeja-goveda-iz-srednjeg-veka }}
