Since 6656/6655 is the difference between a stack of three 11/8's and 13/10, it is natural to choose a rank-2 temperament that uses 11/8 as the generator to exploit the comma. Such a mapping is realized through the fractional subgroup 2.13/10.11, which produces a basis with just one comma - namely the 6656/6655. Name given because the 13/10 interval is sometimes referred to as a "naiadic", and this name separates it from the standard diatonic framework.
Subgroup: 2.13/10.11
Comma list: 6656/6655
Sval mapping: 1 2 4, 0 -3 -1
Optimal tuning (CTE): ~16/11 = 648.608
