The 93 equal division divides the octave into 93 equal parts of 12.903 cents each. 93 = 3 * 31, and 93 is a [[contorted]] (or [[enfactored]]) 31 through the 7 limit. In the 11-limit the patent val tempers out 4000/3993 and in the 13-limit 144/143, 1188/1183 and 364/363. It provides the optimal patent val for the 11-limit prajapati and 13-limit kumhar temperaments, and the 11 and 13 limit 43&50 temperament.

Since 93edo has good approximations of 13th, 17th and 19th harmonics unlike 31edo (as 838.710¢, 103.226¢, and 296.774¢ respectively), it also allows one to give a clearer harmonic identity to [[31edo]]'s excellent approximation of 13:17:19.
