Even though his atomic symbols were introduced in 1813 see the note on p. 359 it was quite a few years before Berzelius's symbols were adopted by the chemistry community. But once accepted they became the new international language of chemistry. Berzelius "contributed more to the development of the atomic theory and to the setting up of accurate values of the atomic weights than did any other worker of the time. Of his contributions moreover to the development of the atomic theory and the advancement of chemical science not the least valuable was the introduction of a chemical symbolism which with slight modification is in use at the present day. By giving his symbols a quantitative meaning - the symbol of an element representing one atomic proportion by weight - it was possible "to show briefly and clearly the number of elementary atoms in each compound and after the determination of their relative weights present the results of each analysis in a simple and easely retained manner". This symbolism was speedily adopted on the Continent but in England only after some considerable time."Findlay "A Hundred Years of Chemistry" p. 14.Parkinson "Breakthroughs" 1813 C. - Leicester & Klickstein "A Source Book in Chemistry" p. 258 ff. - Holmberg 1813:28 a. hardcover

Per Wikipedia Ludwig Johann Friedrich Froriep 1779 - 1847 Was A German University Professor Of Obstetrics Comparative Anatomy And Surgery As Well As A Publisher In The Late Weimar Classicism .On 1 May 1815 He Was Appointed Personal Physician To King Frederick I In Stuttgart And On 16 April 1815 He Became A Member Of The Medical Section Of The Royal Ministry. In March 1816 Froriep Moved To Weimar To Support His Father-In-Law At That Time Head Of The State Industrial Office And Joined The Management Of The Grand Duchy's Health Service As Saxe-Weimar Chief Medical Officer. The Genealogist Ralf G. Jahn Who Researched Schiller's Ancestors And Relatives Hypothesized After Extensive Research Into Sources That It Is Unlikely That Anyone Other Than Ludwig Friedrich Von Froriep Could Have Deliberately Swapped The Skull That Was Placed In Schiller's Tomb. He Had The Expertise And The Opportunity And As A Fanatical Follower Of The Phrenologist Franz Joseph Gall He Also Had The Motive To Do So. Froriep Was The Head Of The Medical Commission That Presented The Fürstengruft Skull As Schiller's Skull And It Was Thanks To His Decisive Influence That The World Believed It Was Seeing Schiller's Skull In The Fürstengruft Skull. He Owned One Of The Most Extensive Collections Of Skulls And Bones Of His Time Containing At Least 1500 Individual Pieces In The Immediate Vicinity Of Schiller's Burial Site. In Modern Analysis Skull-Swapping Is One Of Th Most Unusual Crimes And Froriep Was Demonstrating Considerable Originality And Initiative In The Interest Of Popularization Of False Data.
