The '''217 equal divisions of the octave''' ('''217edo'''), or the '''217(-tone) equal temperament''' ('''217tet''', '''217et''') when viewed from a [[regular temperament]] perspective, is the [[EDO|equal division of the octave]] into 217 parts of 5.529954 [[cent]]s each.

217edo is a strong [[19-limit]] system, the smallest uniquely [[consistent]] in the [[19-odd-limit]] and consistent to the [[21-odd-limit]]. It shares the same 5th and 7th [[Harmonic series|harmonics]] with [[31edo]] (217 = 7 × 31), as well as the [[11/9]] interval (supporting the [[31-comma temperaments #Birds|birds temperament]]). However, compared to 31EDO, its [[patent val]] differ on the mappings for 3, 11, 13, 17 and 19 – in fact, this EDO has a very accurate 13th harmonic, as well as the [[19/15]] interval.
