The Discovery Channel had a similar search in one of its documentaries, called In Search of Eden, which showed a location I thought more plausible. The location is near the headwaters not only of the Tigris and Euphrates, but also the Gishon and Pishon rivers, near the border of Iran and Turkey and close to the Plain of Urartu--which we know as "Ararat." It is a place with a lot of resonance. Today, there's a lot of red dirt and an Iranian city built on the place. -Theo

"there's a lot of red dirt"

Significant because the name ADAM means literally "man of red mud"! Red dirt has much iron oxide in it!

Interesting enough, the heme molecule that allows the binding of oxygen to red blood cells has iron as its main element. "And God formed man from the dust"....

Who says the Bible has no science in it?!
