Answer:
The correct answer is A. The earliest Chinese writing was found on oracle bones.
Explanation:
Oracle bones are animal bones in which inscriptions have been found that form the oldest significant corpus of archaic Chinese writing, which contain important historical information, such as the full real genealogy of the Shang dynasty. This confirmed the existence of this dynasty, which some scholars questioned until its appearance.
Since its recognition as support for Chinese archaic writing in 1899, more than two hundred thousand engraved bones have been found, of which some forty-eight thousand can be consulted in printed editions. Most of the oracular bones are dated on the last two hundred and thirty years of the Shang dynasty, about three thousand two hundred years ago.
