Rank-2 temperaments tempering out 676/675 include the 13-limit versions of [[semaphoresmic clan #Negri|negri]], [[buzzardsmic clan #Buzzard|buzzard]], [[kleismic family #Catakleismic|catakleismic]], [[gravity family #Harry|harry]], [[kleismic family #Tritikleismic|tritikleismic]], [[quintosec family #Decoid|decoid]], [[kleismic family #Quadritikleismic|quadritikleismic]], [[landscape microtemperaments #Avicenna|avicenna]], [[septiennealimmal clan #Hemiennealimmal|hemiennealimmal]], [[wizmic microtemperaments #Tertiathirds|tertiathirds]], and [[aberschismic temperaments #Mystery|mystery]].

It is interesting to note the Graham complexity of 15/13 in these temperaments. This is 2 in negri, 2 in buzzard, 3 in catakleismic, 6 in harry, 9 in tritikleismic, 10 in decoid, 12 in quadritikleismic, 12 in avicenna, 18 in hemiennealimmal, 26 in tertiathirds. Catakleismic and buzzard are particularly interesting from an archipelago point of view. Mystery is special case, since the 15/13 part of it belongs to [[29edo]] alone.

Perhaps the simplest method of making use of the barbados triad and other characteristic island harmonies is to strip things down to essentials by tempering the 2.3.13/5 [[just intonation subgroup]]. The [[minimax tuning]] for this makes the generator the cube root of 20/13, or 248.5953 cents. Edos which may be used for it are [[24edo]], [[29edo]], [[53edo]] and [[111edo]], with [[mos scale]]s of size 5, 9, 14, 19, 24 and 29 making for a good variety of scales.

==== Crete ====
Crete is a strong extension of Barbados tempering out [[64/63]], thus mapping [[7/4]] to a stack of 4 semifourths, and favoring a flat semifourth near 1 step of [[5edo]]. It is a weak extension of [[archy]]. This is a somewhat peculiar temperament as most archy systems do not have interseptimals or equate them with septimal intervals as in [[oceanfront]], but crete can be used in [[34d-edo]], [[39edo|39d-edo]], [[44edo]] and [[49edo]] (with 34d and 39d being often considered better than 34edo and 39edo's [[semaphore]] patent vals). It was discovered and named by {{u|CompactStar}} in 2026. Since it is the combination of [[Archy]] (which is named after an Ancient Greek music theorist) and island, Crete is named after a Greek island.

Some other notable non-patent vals are [[54edo]] using its second-best 13/5 and [[93edo|93b-edo]]. Crete can be seen as a version of [[pseudo-semaphore]] with a singular mapping for 3, making pseudo-semaphore's flat fifth [[52/35]] and pseudo-semaphore's sharp fifth [[3/2]]. It was discovered and named by {{u|CompactStar}} in 2026.
