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.
