What country did Adam and Eve originally come from?

Answer 1

Somewhere in northeastern Turkey was the region from which Adam and Eve were from. The identification of that place as the couple's homeland was based on the description of the Garden of Eden, in the book of Genesis. According to Genesis 2:10-14, Eden was located near the division of one body of water into four rivers. One of the four rivers so identified was the Euphrates, whose source is in northeastern Turkey.

Answer 2

A:Leon R. Kass (The Beginning of Wisdom: Reading Genesis) says that the Garden of Eden is a purely mythic place, as indicated by the fact that there can be no single terrestrial place that would serve as the common source of these four widely separated rivers. True, the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers do meet, but the lands the text associates with the first two rivers are clearly separated from the Tigris-Euphrates valley, the first to the north, the second way to the south. The location was purely mythic and therefore is and was no real country. A:The Garden of Eden was somewhere in the Middle East, but nobody knows it's exact location. At the time of Adam and Eve, there were no "countries" formed, no national borders or boundaries.
