C is the correct answer.
It should read as .
Archaeologists have discovered that Mesopotamian cooks were preparing chicken with coriander and tamarind, just as Egyptian cooks are still doing today.

putting a coma after discoverd would mean that discovery was done over 5 thousand years ago.
so C is the right answer.
