'''Zeus''' is the [[rank-3 temperament]] tempering out [[121/120]], [[176/175]], and [[385/384]]. Notice 121/120 = (176/175)(385/384), it thus equates the septimal neutral second of [[35/32]] with both [[11/10]] and [[12/11]]. That makes 11-limit harmony particularly efficient and deeply entangled with 7-limit harmony. The temperament is, in fact, one of the best ways to further temper on top of tempering out 121/120. That said, 121/120 is such a comma that, on tempering out, will neutralize the distinction between many otonal- and utonal-11 chords, so it might not fit those who wish to explore the subtlety of tones in the 11-limit.
