Science Symbols - Dalton's Table of Elements
This table of elements was originally published in Proceedings of the Literary and Philosophical Society in 1805 by John Dalton (1766 - 1844). Dalton, a science teacher from Manchester, England, proposed the existence of atoms and that each element had their own individual weight.
