The Kartvelian scales generalize the [[wikipedia:Music_of_Georgia_(country)#Scales_and_tuning_system|traditional scale of Georgian folk music]], the [[Kartvelian scale]], to divide the perfect [[Ed4/3|fourth]] and [[EDF|fifth]] into arbitrary numbers of equal steps. This scale, called “untempered” on Wikipedia, is more properly described as the first known [[well temperament]] in music history{{Citation needed}}. The fifth, or conversely the fourth, will be an interval of the corresponding [[edo]] which may generate [[2L 3s]] or [[3L 2s]] and normally stands within one edo degree of 3/2.
