The //pelogic family// tempers out [[135_128|135/128]], the pelogic comma, also known as the major chroma or major limma. The [[5-limit]] temperament is (5-limit) mavila, so named after the Chopi village where it was discovered. The generator for all of these is a very flat fifth, lying on the spectrum between 7-equal and 9-equal.

One of the most salient and characteristic features of pelogic temperament is that when you stack 4 of the tempered fifths you get to a minor third instead of the usual major third that you would get if the fifths were pure. This also means that the arrangement of small and large steps in a 7-note mavila scale is the inverse of a diatonic scale of 2 small steps and 5 large steps; Mavila has 2 large steps and 5 small steps. (see [[2L 5s|2L 5s)]]

Another salient feature of pelogic temperament is the fact that 9 note MOS scales may be produced, thus giving us three different MOS scales to choose from that are not decidedly chromatic in nature; (5, 7, and 9 note scales) This is reflected in the design of the 9 + 7 layout of the Goldsmith keyboard for 16 tone equal temperament. (see[[7L 2s| 7L 2s]])

One of the most common temperaments talked about in the pelogic family is **mavila**, the 5-limit temperament eliminating 138/125, from which higher-limit extensions are derived.
