Monkey man/evolved man is what was found outside the garden/was allowed to evolve, and never did the two meet till the fall.
My account seperates the creation account by pointing out that everything in Genesis/creation seems to be from a central garden POV. Everything outside of that garden (which was made to resemble evolved earth at the time of the fall to ease the transition from the garden to the natural world)
So basically everything the bible points to happens in the Garden world (which again is about 2/3 of the size of North America according to some speculations) and evolution would have occoured outside the garden however you like.
4 rivers flowed from the garden and defined it according to genesis. We also have a description of armed angelic gaurds keeping everyone out after the fall.
Or if you prefer God's Will is the boundry.
