29 is the lowest edo which approximates the 3:2 just fifth more accurately than 12edo: 3/2 = 701.955... cents; 17 degrees of 29edo = 703.448... cents. Since the fifth is slightly sharp, 29edo is a [[positive temperament]] -- a Superpythagorean instead of a Meantone system.

The 3 is the only harmonic, of the intelligibly low ones anyway, that 29-edo approximates, and it does so quite well. Hence one possible use for 29edo is as an equally tempered pythagorean scale. However, it represents the 2.3.11/5.13/5 subgroup to very high accuracy, and 2.3.7/5.11/5.13/5 to a lesser but still good accuracy, and so can be used with this subgroup, which is liberally supplied with chords such as the 1-11/7-13/7 chord, the [[The Archipelago|barbados triad]] 1-13/10-3/2, the minor barbados triad 1-15/13-3/2, the 1-14/11-3/2 triad and the 1-13/11-3/2 triad. 29 tempers out 352/351, 676/675 and 4000/3993 from the 2.3.11/5.13/5 subgroup, and in addition 196/195 and 364/363 from the 2.3.7/5.11/5.13/5 subgroup, so we have various relationships from the tempering, such as the fact that the 1-13/11-3/2 chord and the 1-14/11-3/2 chord are inverses of each other, a major-minor pairing.
