"蛇" was once written as "它", which represented the snake in oracle bone inscriptions. Later on, as "它" was borrowed to be a pronoun meaning "it", "虫" was then added to the left side of "它" to form "蛇". Snakes are closely related to Chinese traditional culture. In Chinese mythology, Nüwa, a goddess who created human beings, was described to have the snake body and a human face.
