I don't know about (B) and (C).  I suspect there will
probably be several conflicting lists for each.  The 
Seven Wonders of the Ancient World in no particular order are:

The Mausoleum of Halicarnassus (sp?).	Remains now in British Museum.
The Temple of Diana at Ephesus.		Gone.
The Colossus of Rhodes.			Gone.
The Pyramids.				Still there, to put it mildly.
The Hanging Gardens of Babylon.		Gone.
The Statue of Zeus at Olympos.		Gone.
The Pharos (lighthouse) at Alexandria.	Gone.
