==Barbados==
Subgroup: 2.3.13/5
Commas: 676/675
Perhaps the simplest method of making use of the barbados triad and other characteristic island harmonies is to strip things down to essentials by tempering the 2.3.13/5 [[Just_intonation_subgroups|just intontation subgroup]]. The minimax tuning for this makes the generator 2/sqrt(3), or 249.0225 cents. EDOs which may be used for it are [[24edo|24edo]], [[29edo|29edo]], [[53edo|53edo]] and [[111edo|111edo]], with MOS of size 5, 9, 14, 19, 24 and 29 making for a good variety of scales.

Closely related to barbados temperament is parizekmic, the rank three 2.3.5.13 subgroup temperament tempering out 676/675. This is generated by 2, 5, and 15/13, where the minimax tuning makes 2 and 5 pure, and 15/13 sharp by sqrt(676/675), or 1.28145 cents. This is, in other words, the same sqrt(4/3) generator as the minimax tuning for barbados, and it gives parizekmic a just 5-limit, with barbados triads where the 13/10 is a cent flat.
