D. It includes all of lived history.

We can only go back so far. Before recorded events there would be no history.

The correct option is D

Written source is the documentary source usually used as a source of the stories. That is, it is normally used to have some theme or some important writing or just to not lose that note being valuable or not.

It should not be forgotten that during most of humanity's past (Prehistory) there was no writing; and that even in the most recent past (History), only a cultured minority produced written documents.
