Heth or Het is the eighth letter of the Phoenician and Hebrew alphabets. The Phoenician letter gave rise to the Greek Eta, 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.
