300+ tET reference

Does anyone know of a reference to a large equal-temperament
of 300+ degrees being 'required for the realization of' ancient
Greek music? (or how about just any reference to 300+ ETs
besides those in Partch and Helmholtz?)

It has a direct bearing on a discovery I made while working
on my paper on Aristoxenus.

I could swear that I remember reading this somewhere, and
thought for sure that it was in _Genesis of a Music_, but
I searched and didn't find it there. (it's still possible
I missed it...)

Over the past couple of days I've looked into some of the
other sources that would be good suspects and didn't see
it in any of them either, and there are just too many other
possibilities in my library for me to find it readily.

Someone please help - if I am remembering correctly, then
it's imperative that I study and cite this reference in my
paper before it gets published.

don't know if it helps but in Genesis of a Music on page 154 Partch mentions
"340 interval values within the 2/1" He also refers then to appendix I where
he lists all of them
There is also a reference to Greek harmoniai playing.
