Answer:

I'm saying B.

Step-by-step explanation:

China has the longest history of total solar eclipse records in the world. The oracle bones found in Anyang reported both total solar and lunar eclipses in the late Shang Dynasty, i.e. 11-14th century BC, while the earliest record of the total solar eclipse might date back to the 20th century BC in the Xia Dynasty

Hope I helped :)
