The devil horns were first used in the 1600's buy Daniel Speer to designate the measure of the distance between adjacent positions on a tenor trombone. The Band Coven used it in 1968, and Geezer Butler used it in 1971, there's a picture of it in the Symptom Of The Universe Boxset. Dio has said he didn't invent it, and did it as a response to Ozzy using the peace sign when he was in Sabbath. Dio wanted to connect with the crowd but didn't want to copy Ozzy so he used the sign his grandma used.

In Italy and some Mediterranean cultures, when confronted with unfortunate events, or simply when these events are mentioned, people flip up the horns to ward off bad luck. It is also used traditionally to counter or ward off the "evil eye" (malocchio). However, when directed towards someone, the sign is instead used as an insult in Italy to imply that another person is a cuckold, and thus the gesture can be offensive and insulting in a manner similar to giving the finger.
