The low background DAMA/NaI experiment (≃ 100 kg highly radiopure NaI(Tl)) at the Gran Sasso National Laboratory of the I.N.F.N. had the unique feature to effectively investigate the presence of Dark Matter particle in the galactic halo by exploiting the model independent annual modulation signature. This experiment has collected data over seven annual cycles for a total exposure of more than 105 kg × day and has pointed out at 6.3 σ C.L. a modulation effect satisfying all the many peculiarities of the signature. Neither systematics nor side reactions able to account for the observed effect were found. Several (but still few with respect to the many possibilities) corollary model dependent quests for the candidate particle have also been carried out. At present the second generation DAMA/LIBRA set-up (≃ 250 kg highly radiopure NaI(Tl)) is in operation. A R&D towards possible ultimate 1 ton NaI(Tl) experiment is also in progress.
