Phoenician Hebrew
Heth ח ח

Heth or Het is the eighth letter of many Semitic alphabets, including Phoenician, Hebrew, and Aramaic. The Phoenician letter gave rise to the Greek Eta (Η), Latin H and Cyrillic И. Heth, like all Phoenician letters, represented a consonant, and H is still a consonant in the Latin alphabet, whereas the Greek and Cyrillic equivalents have come to represent vowel sounds.
