According to Bible scholars--by estimating the generations given, the time would be about 4000 years for the Old Testament and about 2000 years for the New Testament--approximately 6000 years. There were 3 times 49 generations from Adam to Jesus Christ (and these generations are all in the Old Testament). That makes up at least 4-5 thousand years, considering that it is said that people who were 'with God' normally lived 60 to 70 years.
Also, even though most people back then had children even in their teen years (because of early marriages), it's hard to tell which of the children in the families were the ones that created the bloodline, so the actual borderline between people (which had self-awareness and were conscious and intelligent) and humanoid animals can span between 4000 and 9000 years (according to the Bible).
This means the answer is anywhere between 6000 and 11000 years ago.
