Official Solution & Explanation:
Correct Answer: Option B (Proto-historic age)

सैंधव सभ्यता आद्य ऐतिहासिक काल की सभ्यता है, क्योंकि यहां पर लेखन कला का ज्ञान तो है; किंतु अभी तक इसे पढ़ा नहीं जा सका है। अतः इतिहास निर्माण में इसका प्रयोग नहीं किया जा सकता है।

Historical period is determined with respect to the available written literature. The period before which knowledge of the art of writing was not available is called early historical age. Indus Civilization is a Proto historical civilization although the writing was known during this period, but it is still to be deciphered.
