Originally according to western Oregon universities' site: "brief history of the periodic table" the creators wanted a way to track the elements. Originally it was just the elements found in nature. The man made elements came later and were added to the already widely used table. I don't have WOU'S site for reference but you can find it easily from Google. Or just type in" brief history of periodic table" into you favorite search engine.

Natural elements in the Periodic Table are the building blocks of matter found in nature. They exist due to the formation of atoms through nuclear fusion processes in stars, as well as through other natural processes such as nuclear decay and cosmic ray interactions. These elements are essential for the composition of all physical objects in the universe.
