1L 3s, also called antetric, is a 2/1-equivalent (octave-equivalent) moment of symmetry scale containing 1 large step and 3 small steps, repeating every octave. Generators that produce this scale range from 900 ¢ to 1200 ¢, or from 0 ¢ to 300 ¢.
In South Africa, the San use a tetratonic scale which can be approximated by basic 1L 3s.[1]
