Symbols evolved with mankind as a way of communicating ideas to someone, marking the passing of time, or as reminders to the person who made them. They started out pretty basic, five stones in a V shape to indicate direction; or a mark cut on a tree to indicate the tree was of "value"; or as series of knots on the string used to secure a bag, to differentiate the contents. Eventually as mankind evolved and needed to communicate more complex ideas the symbols evolved too.

The chemical symbols are approved by IUPAC; symbols are derived from the name of the chemical element in Latin, frequently the first two letters.
