I don't place any importance on the idea that ‘dm denotes that Adam had a ruddy complexion.

Well, if we take the Bible seriously, it says that the Tigris and Euphrates flows through the garden of Eden. Which would mean that Adam and Eve originally lived in what we now call --- IRAQ.

Has any anthropologist ever considered this angle ?

I'm not an anthropologist, but I doubt that any anthropology department uses the Bible. If anything, they would most likely teach that the Bible was the creation of a bronze age people.

The fact is that “new” findings are found almost every year, and they don't really know from where man originated. It is all theory. They don't even know for certain how old the human race is. It's all guess work. Many of the theories are so ridiculous that they are difficult to take seriously, and many are totally antithetical to one another.

At one time people believed that Neanderthals and Cro-Magnons were related; however, DNA evidence has totally disproved this. Now we are to believe that Cromagnons ate the Neanderthals, and that is why they are extent. Whatever the current theory is today, it will change in a very short time.
