Answer A
According to Biblical history, they lived around 4th Millennium B.C.
Adam and Eve lived shortly after God's creation of the universe. Adam was created on the sixth day. God created the first man from the ground and breathed life into Adam's nostrils. Eve was created after Adam had been in the Garden of Eden on his own, tilling and caring for the plants.
The Bible included no method for coming up with a precise date/month/year to the events in the book of Genesis. However archeological scientific research has provided appproximate dates of various biblical characters & events which can be used to approximate a date of life. Some Biblical scholars believe that the date of the fall of Adam and Eve was around 4000 BC: so that would make it about 6000 years ago if their judgments are correct.
Answer B
The Stone Age has been dated from about 8000 B.C.E. until around 3000 B.C.E. It was preceded by the Ice Age, and followed by the Bronze Age.
It is possible that Adam & Eve lived in the early stages of the Bronze Age, as late as 2750BC approximately, if they were in fact real people at all.
It is now commonly believed that King David (father of King Solomon) lived about 1000B.C. & Moses about 1445B.C. Using the above dates gives an average age of about 55 years for each of the 8 generations given in the bible, from David to Moses time, over a span of 445years approximately.
e.g. David, Jesse, Obed, Baaz, Salmon - is thought to be around Samson & Delillah's time, Nashon, Amminadab, Amram, Hezron, Perez, Judah.
Amram appears in Exodus 6 : 18 as the son of Kohath, & slightly further on as the father of Moses.
The same approximate timespan applys again for the 8 generations from Moses -1445B.C. back to Abraham -1875B.C. an average of 53 years for each generation spanning 430 years.
Moses, Amram, Kohath, Levi, Jacob, Isaac, Ishmael, Abraham.
If we use the previous averages of 8 - 11 generations spanning approximately 430-445years), we can estimate the date of Noah of the Noahs Ark flood story to around 2305B.C.-2320B.C.
The results of sediment tests around the coast of the Black Sea area have also suggested The great flood to have taken place around 2345B.C.
Abraham, Terah, Nahor, Serug, Re'u, Peleg, Eber, Shelah, Arpachad & Shem, Ham & Japheth - the three sons of Noah.
Genesis 10:25 To Eber were born two sons : the name of the one was Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided.
This section of the list of generations is unique in that it is the only generation (apart from Noah & the flood story) that has added information of an event.
Though not specific this is probably in reference to the religious turmoil caused by the changing of the astronomical ages from the Age of Taurus - the Bull to the new Age of Aries-the ram which would have taken place around 2166 B.C. with the change of the ages.
This would have caused widespread religious turmoil as it called for the abandonment of the old deity (the Bull) of Taurus & the worship of the new deity (the Ram) of Aries.
The oldest astronomical texts also date to about the same time.
Finally if we use the given averages we can again estimate an approximate date from Noah back to Adam & Eve.
The generations before Noah were Lamech, Methuselah, Enoch, Jared, Mahalalel, Kenan, Enosh, Seth & Adam & Eve.
The approximate date of Adam & Eve being around 2735B.C.-2765B.C. Or between 2800B.C.-2700B.C.
This is, of course, only one world view, not all believe in it. It does not conform to what is known/believed today about the age of the earth for instance.
Answer C The above analysis contradicts with the recorded Ancient Egyptian History that dates the Ancient Egyptian civilization to 7000 BC. For example it is recorded that in year 3411 BC is the date for Ancient Egypt as unified country (both upper and lower Egypt as one unity). Refer to attached link below. Sure there life long time before even the Ancient Egyptian Civilzation.
Regarding start of life on earth, I write here the following quotes that suggest that earth is dated as billions of years ago (see the link below):
"This suggests that by 3.5 billion years ago Earth was already teeming with diverse microbial life," Dr Neilan said.
"If this is so, evolution must have already been going on for a long time. We can't be sure, but certainly [it must have been evolving] many tens of millions of years earlier."
This suggests that if Adam and Eve life on earth started shortly after universe (or earth) creation), then it must started some billions of year ago and not only few thousands of years as claimed above.
Answer D Adam and Eve were created 4000BCki
Where does the earth came from?
There are multiple answers given to this question. In the United States, there are two common answers. The first is God created the Earth, along with everything else, which is based on the Genesis story from the Bible. The second is that the Earth was created when debris from exploding stars coalesced into an orbit around another star (Sol, the sun in the center our solar system) then eventually was pulled into a condensed sphere due to the effects of gravity; this is the explanation given from scientific inquiry.
Who was the first man to come up with a theory that the earth is a sphere?
Man believed Earth to be flat and the stars to be a covering or blanket for Earth.
An eclipse was considered to be an omen of either a wonderful event or a terrible disaster.
Greek philosopher Pythagoras is accredited as being the first to describe Earth as a sphere during the fifth century BC.
Why are societies patriarchal?
Societies are patriarchal because the earliest humans lived like animals...the bigger ones dominated the smaller ones and pushed them around. Later, as humanity evolved into thinkers, males, wishing to retain power over females (even though they no longer lived in caves and were more dependent on their intelligence, in which women often surpassed them), thought up the theory that God meant for them to rule over women and invented all sorts of "reasons" for women to be submissive. Since men still resorted to beating women into submission, it was not surprising that women pretended to be weak and stupid to survive. Then men said, "See? They're weak and stupid. They need us to tell them what to do" (similar to what white slaveowners used to say about blacks) and they used that as an excuse to deny them education, equal employment opportunities, and the vote. Right after World War 2, women who had worked successfully at all kinds of jobs and were praised for it, were suddenly told that they would never be as good as a man and fired. Women who wanted to keep working were treated as though there was something psychologically wrong with them.
Also, in general, women are just not as obsessed with control as men are. Patriarchal societies are a direct result of male need for control, which is stronger in them than even the desire for sex, and female exhaustion from trying to reason with them.
When did people begin on earth?
People first came on this earth after God created the earth. God first created Adam and from one of Adam's rib bones, God made a woman, Eve. Adam called her a "woman" because she came from man. And just a reminder, people did NOT originate from animals. In Genesis 1:20-25 it states when animals were made and then in Genesis 1:26, it tells how man was made in his own image.
Answer:
A lot depends on your definition of "people".
Most scientists start the process with th earliest hominids, such as the Australopithecines, about 2.3 to 2.4 million years ago in Africa. Human evolution branched off from a common ancestor with chimpanzees about 5--7 million years ago. From that split there were several species (Homo erectus, Homo neanderthalensis) but they are now extinct, we are the only survivors. Archaic Homo sapiens evolved between 400,000 and 250,000 years ago and spread out of Africa eventually populating the world.
How many years was the earth here before god created Adam?
The rational evidence (the fossil record) is that man evolved from ape like ancestors and was not created as told in the bible stories. If you choose to believe in the story of Genesis, then you do not need to ask a question here. However, if you accept the provable evidence "Homo Sapiens", ie anatomically modern humans, first appear in the fossil record in Africa about 195,000 years ago.
When did the first people come to California?
The Spanish conquistidors were the first people to reach California. They reached the state in the 16th century.
Is there scientific evidence that Adam and Eve were the first humans?
There is no scientific evidence to support the story of Adam and Eve as being the first humans. The theory of evolution, supported by vast evidence from multiple scientific disciplines, indicates that humans evolved over millions of years from ape-like ancestors. The story of Adam and Eve is generally regarded as a religious myth rather than a historical account.
What is the name of the worlds first human being?
According to Christianity, Adam and Eve were the first human beings on earth.

But it is all a matter of opinion, considering evolution.
How long has the earth been living?
The oldest known life on earth is approximatey 3.5 billion years old. It is likely that if any existed before this, any trace has long since been destroyed; even now, it is difficult to research and study rocks from the period, let alone fossils or remains.
What was the name of the brother who killed his brother?
Cain from biblical times was the first person to kill his own brother Abel. The fratricide was committed because Cain was jealous of his brother. He even said, "Am I my brother's keeper?" when the Lord asked him where Abel was.
You can read about this in Genesis Chapter 4.

How many people have been born since Adam?
106.5 billion. And 5.8% of them are alive today.
That's the short answer. The long answer can be found at:
http://www.prb.org/articles/2002/howmanypeoplehaveeverlivedonearth.aspx.
Medium answer: we can't know for sure how many people lived before we settled down and started using agriculture, but at that time (around 10,000 years ago) there were 5 million of us. In 1 AD there were 300 million, and in 1850 there were 1.2 billion. There are now 6 billion.
If you assume that the rate of population growth over the last ten thousand years has held steady, then you can estimate how many people lived in the generations between now and our earliest ancestors in 50,000 BC.
Who were the first people on earth after the dinosaurs died?
i think that humans were on earth after the dinosaurs (adam and eve).
Humanoids began to show up on earth about 55-million years after the dinosaurs died out, and the sapiens species wasn't around until the last couple of hundred thousands of years.
If you choose to accept the Adam and Eve myth, fair enough, but no one has ever found their fossils
According to Lanier what motive did Eve have for tasting the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge?
Eve was tempted by the serpent. Many would say that she is blameless, that the devil made her do it. The problem is that no one can be made to do anything. Genesis 3:6 pretty clearly identifies Eve's motives: "When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it." Just so it's clear: Good for food, Pleasing to the eye,Desirable for gaining wisdom.
Did Adam really come before eve?
Well technically before she was named Eve her official name was "Adam's rib" but she thought that was too long and when she became a real human girl because God wanted a friend for Adam she became known as Eve ... because God said so and I believe that's a good enough reason for anything.
The term 'God knows everything' is a misnomer. Yes God does have the ability to know everything. But it is not to be taken literally. The term if taken literally would represent 'sillyness'. The term 'omnicient' is not a Bible term, but a warped concept.
Consider the silliness of it: How many molecules are there in the whole universe? Would God really need to know where every single molecule in the whole universe will be at every moment in all of eternal history; in order for him to be God? You see the silliness of it all?
Example: One of the aspects of the fruitage of the holy spirit is 'self-control'. Therefore God would be the master of 'self-control'.
Now consider us humans: Our mind has the 'potential ability' to come to the very edge of a 'thought'; and then to enter that 'arena of thought' as deep as you might wish to. But because some 'thoughts' are abhorent (ie child abuse / rape / murder / kidnapping / torture / etc etc etc) we CHOOSE -- NOT TO Fanticize in our minds those 'potential abilities'. We excercise 'self-control' over our thoughts.
Since we are 'made in God's image', God would exercise better control over the thoughts of the future he chooses to enter. The thought God would 'enter', would be based on righteous principles; not a random thinking over every stitchin' thing.
The Bible states that God is RIGHTEOUS, JUST, FAIR. It would be none of those IF God KNEW in advance what Adam and Eve would do; and then God tease them by telling them 'not to eat from it'. My goodness. What human would put something evil in front of their child, if they knew full-well what the child would do. This concept of: 'God knows literally every single thing' -- is a silly concept.
After Adam and Eve sinned what did god make for them after they sinned?
Adam and Eve separated themselves from God's perfect world, and brought about physical suffering and pain to Adam and Eve and all people that followed them.
After God created man - did he become afraid of his own creations?
Of course not. It is we who should have love and fear of God. See also:
What is the joke about Eve saying to Adam after she had her twenty-third child?
Little Mary was not the best student in Sunday School. Usually she slept through the class. One day the teacher called on her while she was napping, ''Tell me, Mary, who created the universe?'' When Mary didn't stir, little Johnny, an altruistic boy seated in the chair behind her, took a pin and jabbed her in the rear. ''God Almighty !'' shouted Mary and the teacher said, ''Very good'' and Mary fell back to sleep.
A while later the teacher asked Mary, ''Who is our Lord and Savior?'' But Mary didn't even stir from her slumber. Once again, Johnny came to the rescue and stuck her again. ''Jesus Christ!'' shouted Mary and the teacher said, ''Very good,'' and Mary fell back to sleep. Then the teacher asked Mary a third question, ''What did Eve say to Adam after she had her twenty-third child?'' And again, Johnny jabbed her with the pin. This time Mary jumped up and shouted, ''If you stick that damn thing in me one more time, I'll break it in half!'' The Teacher fainted.
Where do mormons think the garden of eden was?
Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) believe that the Garden of Eden no longer exists. They have no doctrine as to where exactly the Garden of Eden was. They do believe, however, that Adam and Eve lived in a place called 'Adam-Ondi-Ahman' after being expelled from the Garden of Eden. Joseph Smith said that Adam-Ondi-Ahman was located in what is now Daviess County, Missouri, near Independence.
The Church of Jesus christ of Latter-day Saints currently owns the property described by Joseph Smith as Adam-Ondi-Ahman, and uses most of it as farmland for the Church welfare and humanitarian programs. There is also a small visitor/tourist portion open to the public.

What is the Bible reference of Adam and Eve?
The Bible says both Adam and Eve were the first people, and also the first to sin, which happened in the garden of Eden.
The Bible talks about Adam and Eve and their children from Genesis 2:4-4:25. The Bible continues to reference back to Adam and Eve throughout the whole Bible.
What was Adams first wife name you n Genesis?
The Bible never says anything specifically about Adam having any wife other than Eve. To be fair, it also doesn't specifically and unambiguously state that he didn't, though certain passages in the New Testament do rather strongly imply it.
Occasionally Genesis 1:27 is taken to imply that the first woman was created at the same time as the first man. However, neither of them are given names at that point.
Starting around Genesis 2:7 the story "backs up" and fills in some of the details; as that passage continues, it becomes clear that the man was created first and the woman was created later. There's no particularly good reason within the text itself to believe that this section is anything other than an expanded version of Genesis 1:27.
In particular, since the passage in chapter 2 describes the creation of the first man again, it does not make a great deal of sense to assume that the man is the same man, but the women are different.
