in such sentences its very important to understand the meaning of the sentences first, take a few secs and interpret what the sentence is trying to say.

only A and E come close to conveying the intended meaning of the sentence. 'A' loses the plot by conveying a meaning that as the other civilizations existed, in the same way the XYZ civilization was recorded.

However the correct meaning is - the XYY civilization was recorded via same means as other civilizations.
Cheers !!
