The International Journal of Dental Anthropology - IJDA (ISSN  0124-7336) was founded on the occasion of the 9th Congress of Anthropology held in Popayan, Colombia, South America in 2000. Since 2005 IJDA has been published twice by year. The journal is published with the financial support of Syllaba Press.

Dental Anthropology is not a well-known field of research in the world due to its recent specialization as a Bioanthropological subdiscipline. In the investigations of current and past human groups, the dental system analysis is too useful to solve current Anthropological problems. Studies of dental morphology can help us to solve queries related to individual aspects like Sex, Age, Diet, Oral Disease and Anomalies in Development and Growth stages, even the Identification of N.N ´s in forensic contexts and group aspects from special morphological traits analysis like contacts among groups, migrations, geographic and genetic isolations, etc. tied to studies of Human Population and Osteological Biology.

The International Journal of Dental Anthropology - IJDA (ISSN 0124-7336) publishes original articles (peer-reviewed) on topics such as Attrition, Occlusion, Morphology, Odontometry, Pathology, Growth and Development and Cultural Treatment topics, treated from the clinical, bioanthropological, bioarchaeological, genetic and evolutionary focus. Is published two times a year (in January and July) by Syllaba Press, Suite 722 - 4586, 1900 N. W. 97th Avenue, Miami, Florida 33172, USA.
