“Elohim” is a plural word meaning “all the gods”, and Yahweh is a particular god. We know that Yahweh is fallible, because he walks in the garden, talks to Adam, does not know where Adam is, is outsmarted by Eve, and so on.
Genesis says the Elohim existed before Adam. Some of them were human, the ancestors of the Anakites, and their origin can be dated to 9,000 BC.
[Jack] Kirby tells how the gods caused a gigantic explosion, in Lemuria (an island in the Indian Ocean) to punish Deviants (an unstable sister species to humans) for their cruelty. Around 73,000 BC the Toba supervolcano in Sumatra erupted and threw out 700 cubic miles of magma, causing enormous tsunamis, and climate change that only a few humans survived.
Atlantis refers both to a city and a continent. The city was on an island in the Sea of Atlas (an inland sea in Tunisia, when the Sahara was wetter). Some time in the bronze age (c. 9000 BC) an earthquake blocked the river that emptied the Sea of Atlas into the Mediterranean. But feeder rivers continued to flow into the sea of Atlas, causing its level to rise by several feet. This flooded the city of Atlantis. The survivors later founded the city of Carthage and continued to dominate the region until the Punic wars.
The world’s first known war was over land ownership in the Qadan region of Egypt between 13,000–9,000 BC.
Most of the male population across Asia, Europe and Africa seems to have died off between 5000 BC to 3000. Leaving behind just one man for every 17 women.
In Genesis 1, the nature gods (Elohim) created the world, and finish by creating humans in the image of the gods. (“Adam” just means “a human”). These godlike humans had dominion over the land, just like gods. They were men like Gilgamesh, who saw himself as“one-third man, two-thirds god”. These humans (“adams”) were landlords: landlord-gods, or “lordgods”. In Genesis 2, these lord-gods created a class of humans (adams) to do their work for them. These new adams were not created in the image of the gods, like rulers, they are created from the dust: like dirt. c. 4000 BC
