Karipuna is an extinct Panoan language formerly spoken in the state of Rondônia in Brazil. It may have been a dialect of Chácobo.[1] It was also known as Eʼloê,[2] as well as Jau-Navo and Jaunavô, based on the self-denomination Jaũn Àvo.[3] It is primarily known from a number of wordlists recorded by various explorers of the Amazon region, including Johann Natterer and Carl Friedrich Philipp von Martius,[4] as well as by the Rondon Commission.[2]
