Genesis chapter 2 says that a river flowed through the Garden of Eden and that it had four tributaries, two of which were the Tigris and the Euphrates Rivers, which flow through ancient Babylonia. However, the passage also says that one of the other tributaries was the Gihon, which flows through Ethiopia. Although there is no river Gihon and appears never to have been such a river, this information places the Garden of Eden far away in in Ethiopia.

A single river can not have tributaries in two continents, so the Garden of Eden can not really have been in either babylonia or Ethiopia. This is further evidence that there was no Garden of Eden. Leon R. Kass (The Beginning of Wisdom: Reading Genesis) says that the Garden of Eden is a purely mythic place.
