Correct article use before words that begin with "h"
editAs per Clark, S.; Pointon, G. (2016). The Routledge Student Guide to English Usage: A Guide to Academic Writing for Students. Taylor & Francis. p. 349. ISBN 9781317391173. OCLC 951101307. Retrieved 2018-01-12.:
a is used before words that begin with a consonant sound (not necessarily a consonant letter): a house, a unit. An is used before words beginning with a vowel sound (not necessarily a vowel letter: an apple, an hour. It is the sound not the spelling of the first syllable in the following word that follows a or an, that decides the form of the indefinite article.
In your edit to Teide you changed it from "a historical record" to "an historical record". However, the consanant h in historical is pronounced, therefore "a historical record" is correct. I made the correction by reverting your edit.
