The correct answer is B. Cuneiform

Step-by-step explanation:

The image presents an ancient form of writing based on symbols rather than on individual letters; this form of writing was known as the cuneiform writing system and developed in the Sumerian civilization (Mesopotamia). Moreover, this differs from hieroglyphics because these were part of the writing system in Egypt rather than Mesopotamia. Besides this, cuneiform is considered as a major contribution of this Ancient civilization because it registered important information about Sumer civilization and was one of the first writing systems. According to this, the correct answer is Cuneiform.
