The correct answer is option 3)ADCB.
Sentence A is the first statement as it establishes the subject of the paragraph, which is people not knowing much about the particular civilization.
Sentence D follows A as the words 'since then' refers to the time period 1920s which is mentioned in sentence A.
Sentence C follows D as it talks on the same note. Sentence B is the fourth statement as it mentions the second reason and the other three sentences revolving around the same topic form a sequence. Thus it is clear that only after those three sentences would B be placed.
The correct arrangement is ADCB.
