Kapóng is a Cariban language spoken mainly in Guyana, most commonly in the region of the Upper Mazaruni.
Though many speakers do not live in villages, there are a number of population centers, notably Kamarang, Jawalla, Waramadong, and Kako.
The Carib tribes practice an indigenous system of beliefs, one that dates back to the 16th century.
