The use of accidentals (sharps and flats) to identify the key was not common until the 17th century when keyboard music began to proliferate.
The key signature served the same purpose as the movable clef, showing the musician which line or space to start the scale on.
In early music, everything was written in one of three keys, the equivalent of C, G and F today, and only the first six scale tones were used.

Key signatures show which notes are to be played or sung as sharps or flats throughout the song.
For example, a song in the key of D is based on the D Major scale, which begins and ends with "D" -- with "F" and "C" played sharp throughout.
When sharps and flats are written into music as needed (next to the notes), they're called accidentals.
