The '''archipelago''' is a rag-tag collection of various regular temperaments of different ranks, including subgroup temperaments, associated with island temperament: the rank five thirteen limit temperament tempering out the island comma, [[676/675]]. Common to all of them is the observation that two intervals of 15/13 are equated with a fourth. Hence a 1-15/13-4/3 chord is a characteristic island chord, and 15/13 tends to be of low complexity. Also characteristic is the barbados triad, the 1-13/10-3/2 triad, as well as its inversion 1-15/13-3/2, the barbados tetrad, 1-13/10-3/2-26/15, plus the tetrads 1-13/10-3/2-8/5 and 1-13/10-3/2-9/5. The [[just intonation subgroup]] generated by 2, 4/3 and 15/13 is 2.3.13/5, and the barbados triad and tetrad are found in that, while the other two tetrads are found in the larger 2.3.5.13 subgroup.

The barbados triad is of particular theoretical interest because, when reduced to lowest terms, it is the 10:13:15 triad. Thus, this triad is only slightly higher in complexity than the 5-limit 10:12:15 minor triad, which means it may be of distinct value as a relatively unexplored musical consonance. It is one of only a few low-complexity triads with a 3/2 on the outer dyad, some others being 4:5:6, 6:7:9, and 10:12:15. It works out to 0-454-702 cents, which means that it is an ''ultramajor'' triad, with a third sharper even than the 9/7 supermajor third.

Compared to the 7-limit 14:18:21 supermajor triad, 10:13:15 is lower in triadic complexity (10:13:15 vs 14:18:21), but contains dyads that are on average higher in complexity (9/7 vs 13/10 and 7/6 vs 15/13). Its inverse, however, is the ultraminor 26:30:39, which is far more complex than the 7-limit subminor 6:7:9. [[The Biosphere|Temperaments in which 91/90 vanishes]] equate the two types of triads.

[[24edo]] approximates this triad to within an error of four cents, and [[29edo]] does even better, getting it to within 1.5 cents; either may be used as a tuning for the barbados temperament discussed below.

Taylor is the "reduction" of [[hemischis]] to the 2.3.5.13 subgroup, tempering out the [[schisma]] in addition to 676/675. It can be reasonably extended to include harmonic 19 like most schismic temperaments, but even better, the hemifourth may be interpreted as an octave-reduced harmonic 37 ([[37/32]]). The extension is dubbed ''dakota'' (not to be confused with [[595/594 #Temperaments|dakotismic and/or dakotic]]).
