Lost civilization under Persian Gulf? | ScienceDaily
It is certainly is possible that people were living around the Persian Gulf, during the ice age period, when water levels are said to be 60 to 100 m lower (at least I think that is what is said).
Problem 1:
But this has nothing to do with the 4 rivers mentioned in the tanakh.
Problem 2:
The ice age was a very long time ago and like I said, humans did not pass along boring facts. Humans from 5000 BCE would not know anything about humans nor the environment of 10,000 BCE. They are not interested in geography or geology, not interested in how long a river is, where it starts and where it ends. They would know things like where is the best place to fish, what type of fish are available, what kind of plants can be used and where to find them.
Problem 3:
The idea is that a single river (A nameless river) flows from the tree of life and splits into 4 rivers with names.
Tigris and Euphrates merge so this doesn't match up with the jewish mythology.
The 2 other rivers are unknown. Your picture is made up who-eeeey.
