A Just pentatonic Scale

This is a "translation" of one of my previous 12TET compositions,
which consisted of:

1. The tetrachord C4-D#4-F4-A#4 in the melody line, and...

2. The tetrachord C3-F2-D#2-G2 in the bass line, for a total of the
five tones...

3. C-D#-F-G-A#



Here's what I came up with for a "translation" into just intonation:


Absolute Successive
Pitch Frequency Ratio Ratio



C4 400 1/1

6/5

D#4 480 6/5

9/8

F4 540 27/20

10/9

G4 600 3/2

6/5

A#4 720 9/5

10/9

C5 800 2/1



I was curious whether this scale corresponded to one in any other
culture or historical period, that anybody knew of. Thanks.
