Antonian is an exotemperament that tempers out 10/9, the classic major second, setting the perfect fifth (3/2) equal to the classic major sixth (5/3). This temperament is less accurate than more common archetypal exotemperaments like father or dicot, doing something with such high damage as to make 3/2 and 5/3, 4/3 and 6/5, or 5/4 and 9/8 the same interval. It can be represented by only 3edo in its patent val.

Extensions

There are some extensions of antonian, including septimal antonian (2cd & 3d), antonym (2cd & 3), antony (2c & 3d), and phlegyas (2c & 3).

In the septimal antonian, 7/6 is equated to 5/4 and 9/8, by tempering out 15/14 and 28/27. Antonym tempers out 7/6 and 21/20. Antony tempers out 8/7 and 36/35. Phlegyas tempers out 35/32 and 64/63.
