Adam and Chavvah were real, yes.
It is very interesting that evidence of written human records goes back as far as about 5000 years but no further. This says a lot about the Biblical truth of the Noah flood that wiped everything out except for Noah and his family and the animals. Doesn’t really directly point to Adam but does verify Biblical accuracy.
Yes. Real real.
Writing goes back farther than that.
This prof at Missouri State U. thinks that Gan Eden (the Garden of Eden) was located in the present-day Persian Gulf.

Bkmrk.
Michael Cremo of “Fobidden Archaeology” says that modern man has been around for possibly up to a billion years based on evidence not accepted by the establishment.
“based on evidence”
Haven’t seen a shred of verified evidence of man’s existence earlier than 6000 years ago.
The earth has been around for eons and other creatures like dinosaurs. But there has been ZERO verifiable evidence of man’s existence earlier than about 6000 years ago even though there’ve been plenty of hoaxes presented as evidence.
There is cuniform that talks of people before the Flood, and that some of the writings survived.
No matter what your views on the physical being evolved on not... that date that “the light” so to speak when the first man's mind became an ongoing self aware conscious bring is the start point for man being in image of The self aware God...that is the date of Adam and Eve that is the date of relevance
Even atheistic agnostic science fiction make this distinction of a critical mass dividing line of self awareness with a long history of computers coming self aware in its writing... be it hal in 2001 or skynet in terminator..or Data in star trek ng
Catholics will have a problem with this as they view Genesis as symbolic.
Name a Catholic that views Genesis as symbolic??? You have NO idea of what you are talking about.
There must have been a helluva lot of incest for the first few generations after Adam and Eve.
