A:No, there is aboslutely no evidence Adam and Eve were the first humans. The biblical story goes against every scientific discovery of the last two centuries. Much closer to the mark is Cardinal George Pell who, in a recent televised debate, said that the story of Adam and Eve is a myth - a religious story told for religious purposes. A:Recent biochemical evidence suggests a common ancestry of all modern human beings that are descendant of a female in Africa . This evidence is for mitochondrial DNA and is termed as MRCA . this lineage is also called Mitochondrial Eve and is more older as compared to Time of Adam & Eve as indicated by Bible and other religious books . Remember this evidence is only matrilineal .

Similarly DNA sequencing of Y chromosome indicates a genetic 'Adam' between 60000 to 142000 years ago .

What did the first people on earth look like?

The appearance of the first people on earth is not definitively known, as it dates back to prehistoric times. However, based on scientific evidence and theories, it is believed they would have looked similar to modern-day humans but with some physical differences due to evolution and adaptation to their environment. These early humans likely had dark skin, hair covering most of their bodies, and a more robust physical build compared to contemporary humans.


Who was the first to wear clothing?

Adam and Eve


If Jericho was inhabited 9000 years ago by people long before Adam Eve who were the first people?

Obviously, if you accept archaeological evidence that demonstrates that the human settlement on this planet is over 7,000 years, then Adam and Eve cannot be the progenitors of the world's population. Accepting current scientific consensus holds that the first modern humans came into existence between 100,000-250,000 years ago. This was long before writing, so we have no clue what these first humans were named.

Who is Adam and was he the first person on earth?

In Jewish, Christian and Islamic belief, Adam was the first man, usually believed to have been created around 6,000 years ago. The name Adam means 'man' in Hebrew, so some biblical scholars question whether all the biblical stories about Adam were originally considered to be all about the same man.Whether Adam was really the first man on earth is a matter of belief. Scientists say that our first hominid ancestors evolved around 7 million years ago, and that our own species, Homo sapiens (or 'modern humans') evolved nearly 200,000 years ago. On the scientific evidence, Adam was not the first person on earth.

Adam was not born but created by God who was the first person to be born into the world?

According to the biblical account, Adam and Eve were the first persons in creation and lived about 6,000 years ago, when the world was created. According to this account, Cain was the first person born. This is also on the assumption that Adam and Eve did not have a daughter first: the biblical account does not mention daughters, although a daughter would have to have been born at some stage to provide a wife for Abel. However, we have ample evidence of human settlements long before 6,000 years ago, meaning that the biblical account of Adam and Eve and the genealogies of their descendants are not literally true. Moreover, we know from archaeology that humans have lived on earth for millions of years - long before the time attributed to Adam and Eve. So, based on good scientific evidence, we do not know who the first person was.
