- "Archytas" redirects here. For the ancient Greek Pythagorean, see Wikipedia: Archytas.
Archytas is the rank-3 temperament tempering out 64/63, with the same 2.3.7-subgroup structure as archy but giving prime 5 an independent generator. It has an obvious extension to the 11-limit tempering out 100/99 and 176/175, called ares, as 64/63 = (100/99)(176/175).
For technical data, see Archytas family #Archytas. See also: Archytas family #Ares.
Etymology
These temperaments are named after the ancient Greek mathematician Archytas and the Greek god Ares respectively, the latter being most likely related to the fact that Archytas was Greek.
