U+10B67 "𐭧" Inscriptional Pahlavi Letter Heth is a glyph used in the Inscriptional Pahlavi script, an ancient writing system employed for Middle Persian and Parthian languages on stone and metal inscriptions from the Parthian and Sassanian eras. This letter represents the consonant sound /h/ and is part of the right to left writing direction typical of this abjad script, which derived from the earlier Aramaic alphabet. Found in historical artifacts such as royal inscriptions and religious texts, it provides modern scholars with a window into the linguistic and cultural practices of pre Islamic Iran, where it was used to record administrative, historical, and liturgical content.
