Abstract
Interdisciplinarity as a subject in science studies is regarding to the way that different sciences and their results are combined to reach a comprehensive understanding of scientific subjects. Interdisciplinarity is a solution to cross the hard boundaries of sciences and make them closer and relative to each others. Disciplinarity has been the result of division among the sciences, and Interdisciplinarity is the way to solve the limitation of this division. 
Study of Culture as multi dimensional phenomena in human life required an interdisciplinary perspective. Anthropology as a science of human and culture formed in the historical situations that its founders and subjects came from other disciplines. 
In this paper I try to discuss from interdisciplinary perspective on the historical and theoretical framework of anthropology. As a result it is stated that interdisciplinary frameworks of anthropology originated from its beginnings and have continued till today. Finally these aspects characterize the study of culture as interdisciplinary field; anthropology among the social science can do this job in its best level.
