It comes from the Latin verb 'facere', which meant 'to make' or 'to do'. Over centuries, the 'f' sound at the beginning of many Latin words softened into a silent 'h' in Spanish, and the verb forms changed into what we see today.
First recorded: Forms related to 'hacer' appeared in the earliest written Spanish texts around the 10th century.
