Described as the 525 & 1911 temperament, and named after the 21st element for splitting the octave into 21 parts. Coincidentally, ''Encyclopaedia Britannica'' entry for scandium was written in the year 1911 which was used as the reason for the naming.

Template:Fractional-octave navigation This page collectes temperaments with a period of 1/21 of an octave.
Although 21edo itself is not remarkably accurate for low-complexity harmonics, some temperaments which are multiples of 21, such as 441, 1407, and 1848 are. 441 and 1848 are also members of zeta edo list.

Vasca
Vasca can be described as the 357 & 525 temperament, extended as high as the 23-limit. It tempers out the [95 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 -21⟩, and sets a stack of 21 23/16's equal with 11 octaves. The name derives from elements vanadium (23) and scandium (21), since this uses the 23rd harmonic, which itself is extremely well represented in 21edo.

Scandium
Described as the 525 & 1911 temperament, and named after the 21st element for splitting the octave into 21 parts. Coincidentally, Encyclopaedia Britannica entry for scandium was written in the year 1911 which was used as the reason for the naming. Remarkably, unlike akjayland, it is not a landscape system.
