The famous //53 equal division// divides the octave into 53 equal comma-sized parts of 22.642 cents each. It is notable as a [[5-limit]] system, a fact apparently first noted by Isaac Newton, tempering out the schisma, 32805/32768, the kleisma, 15625/15552, the amity comma, 1600000/1594323 and the semicomma, 2109375/2097152. In the 7-limit it tempers out 225/224, 1728/1715 and 3125/3087, the marvel comma, the gariboh, and the orwell comma. In the 11-limit, it tempers out 99/98 and 121/120, and is the [[optimal patent val]] for [[Nuwell family|Big Brother]] temperament, which tempers out both, as well as 11-limit [[Semicomma family|orwell temperament]], which also tempers out the 11-limit comma 176/175. In the 13-limit, it tempers out 169/168 and 245/243, and gives the optimal patent val for [[Marvel family|athene temperament]]. It is the eighth [[The Riemann Zeta Function and Tuning#Zeta EDO lists|zeta integral edo]].

==Just Approximation==  
=Just Approximation=  
53edo provides excellent approximations for the classic 5-limit [[just]] chords and scales, such as the Ptolemy-Zarlino "just major" scale.

==Intervals==  
One notable property of 53EDO is that it offers good approximations for both pure and pythagorean major thirds.
