The first is | The first is [[Chromatic pairs#Antikythera|antikythera]], or no-3's [[Diaschismic family|srutal/pajara]], which is srutal/pajara without any intervals containing 3 in their prime factorization, so it becomes a 2.5.9 or 2.5.7.9 subgroup temperament. This means that the generator is twice that of srutal/pajara (210-220 cents rather than 105-110), since odd numbers of generators are only needed for intervals with 3.
