In Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar, Brutus and Cassius make a(n) (i) _____ reference to a mechanical clock, though in the time of the story it had not yet been invented.

The highlighted sentence above indicated that though the clock was not invented it was mentioned, it was belonged to a period other than that it was portrayed.

Only option B- anachronistic fits the bill

IMO B

Hope this helps!!
