The Chinese character 符号 (fúhào) is composed of two parts: 符 (fú) and 号 (hào). The character 符 originally meant "tally" or "token", and was used in ancient China as a form of identification or authorization. It was often made of wood or metal, and was split in half, with one half given to each of two parties who needed to verify each other's identity. The character 号 originally meant "signal" or "command", and was used to refer to a variety of signals, such as smoke signals, drumbeats, or flags. Over time, the two characters came to be used together to refer to any kind of symbol or code, and eventually took on the meaning of "symbol" or "sign".
