Equi-heptitonic scales are used in non-western music in African cultures and it has been speculated in "Indian music:history and structure", that the Indian three-sruti interval of 165 cents is close enough to be mistaken for 171 cents. (or 1.71 semitones).

7-tet can be thought of as result of stacking seven 11/9s on top of each other, and then tempering to remove the comma 2^(-2) 3^(-14) 11^7.
