The only hard fact in this seems to be that it wasn't. I am not too
shocked by that, for I have never assumed that any of the three IE
laryngeals was a voiced pharyngeal spirant. I would rather bet on
velar and labiovelar point of articulation for H2 (which was
voiceless) and H3 (which was voiced), and for plain [h] for H1.
