293EDO is the equal division of the octave into 293 parts of 4.0956 cents each.
293EDO is the 62nd prime EDO.
Theory
Script error: No such module "primes_in_edo".
293 edo does not approximate prime harmonics well all the way into the 41st, unless 30-relative cent errors are considered "well", in which case it equally represents all of them. The first harmonic that it approximates within 1 standard deviation of one step is 43rd, which is 10 cents flat compared to the just intonated interval.
When it comes to the intervals that are not octave-reduced prime harmonics, some which are well-approximated are 6/5, 11/7, 17/11, 19/17, 24/23, 25/17, and 25/19. 21/16, which is a composite octave-reduced harmonic, is also well represented. These numbers are related to poor approximation of prime harmonics by cancelling out of the errors. For example, 19th and 17th harmoincs have +36 and +37 error respectively, which together cancels out to 1.
One step of 293edo is at the edge of human pitch perception of 3.5 cents. When combined with low harmonicity, this opens 293edo to a wide range of interpretations.

Scales
33L 19s maximally even scale of 293edo has a real life application - it is a leap year pattern of a proposed calendar. Using MOS, it employs 62\293 as a generator, described as "accumulator" by the creator of the calendar himself. Likewise, a 71-note cycle with 260\293 generator can be constructed by analogy.
