The Dawn of Humanity & the Dispersion of Nations (c. 4026–1943 BCE)

From the creation of Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden, through the Flood that destroyed the world and the ark that came to rest on the mountains of Ararat, to the confusion of languages at the Tower of Babel and the dispersion of Shem, Ham, and Japheth into the nations, and finally Terah's family moving from Ur of the Chaldeans via Haran to Canaan — the prelude to Abraham's journey of faith and the first chapters of human civilization spreading across the earth.
