It is actually the C (before I or E) or the Z that sound, in the speech of most people from Spain, like the TH in English. The S in Spanish words (both in Spain and in Latin America) sounds like S. Words like "siento" ("I feel") and "ciento" ("hundred") evolved in Spahish with different sounds, from older Latin words with different sounds. In most other Spahish-speaking countries, those sounds merged into the same sound. In a similar way, English speakers from some regions pronounce "do" and "due" differently, while others pronounce them the same.
