When kings and queens are crowned, part of the coronation ceremony is to mark the forehead of the monarch with oil, often oil which has been sanctified in some way. A monarch who has been marked with oil in this way is said to be annointed, and to annoint is to mark with oil.
In Greek, the oil for annointing was called "chrism"; the word "Christ" means "the annointed one", which gives you an idea how old the custom is.
