The first recorded solar eclipse was recorded in stone in 3340 B.C. on the 30th of November. The first recorded lunar eclipse was noted in 690 A.D. It was recorded in the "Annales Cambriae."
It was probably first recorded by the Babylonians who were the first known astronomers, in about 600 BC.
Solar eclipses have been happening since before life existed on Earth. It is anybody's guess when the first creature evolved eyes and looked up, but men have been terrified by eclipses since the first men. Yes that is right, Solar Eclipses have been happening since the world started.

They have existed as long as the Earth and Moon have been in existence. It would be difficult to put a date on it, but mankind has been aware of them for thousands of years. The earliest record is from 2800BC.
It was the first solar eclipse the moon blocked out the sun
As early as 2800 BCE, ancient Chinese observes witnessed a solar eclipse. They thought it was a dragon devouring the sun though. It wasn't until 1605 that a recorded scientific observation was made by astronomer, Johannes Kepler.
