Notes:

    points calculated on the basis of 3 points/win;
    in total 70 championships were played, so Millonarios, Nacional and
      Santa Fe played in all editions

 [1] called Atl�tico Municipal from 1948 to 1950 and Independiente 
     Nacional in 1957
 [2] Deportivo Cali withdrew from Dimayor (Divisi�n Mayor del F�tbol
     Colombiano) in 1955 due to financial problems and reentered in
     1959 after having been refounded and obtained the place of Boca
     Juniors [Cali] which disappeared after 1958 
 [3] called Medell�n F.B.C. until 1954; temporarily diappeared in
     1954 before reentering under current name
 [4] Atl�tico Junior withdrew from Dimayor (Divisi�n Mayor del F�tbol
     Colombiano) in 1953 due to financial problems and for 12 years
     played in amateur regional tournaments and the Liga del Atlantico,
     organised by Adef�tbol (Asociaci�n de F�tbol Colombiano), before
     reentering in 1966
 [5] called Atl�tico Quindio until 1986
 [6] temporarily known as  "Varta Caldas", "Cristal Caldas" and "Once 
     Phillips" due to sponsorship, but its official name Once Caldas 
     was not changed; claims the heritage of Deportes Caldas who won 
     the 1950 championship
 [7] Samarios changed name to Uni�n Magdalena in 1953.
 [8] was the result of a merger in 1952 between Once Deportivo and
     Deportes Caldas; initially called Atl�tico Manizales
 [9] in 1971 Real Cartagena and Oro Negro [Barrancabermeja] played in
     the league for one season on the franchises of Atl�tico Bucaramanga 
     and Deportivo Independiente Medell�n, respectively, due to financial
     problems of the latter two; in 1992, Real Cartagena obtained the 
     place of Sporting [Barranquilla]
[10] clubs which meanwhile disappeared

NB: a promotion/relegation mechanism with the "Primera B" was created 
    in 1991; until then, teams only disappeared due to disaffiliations 
    or withdrawals, usually due to financial problems
