Leon R. Kass (The Beginning of Wisdom: Reading Genesis) says that the Garden of Eden is a purely mythic place - a mere Utopia, literally "no place" - indicated by the fact that there can be no single terrestrial place that would serve as the common source of these four widely separated rivers. True, the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers do meet, but the lands the text associates with the first two rivers are clearly separated from the Tigris-Euphrates valley, the first to the north, the second to the south. There never really was a Garden of Eden.
A:It is believed to have been located in southern Babylonia (Iraq), in an area near the Persian Gulf which was later destroyed in the Flood.

∙ 11y agoAs with most cataclysmic floods... whatever existed beforehand ceases to exist.
In the case of what some call "Noah's" flood [the most destructive and global flood in world history]... the entire face of the earth was altered. Even the continents as we know them, today, may well have been one single land mass before the flood.
So, the Garden that God planted "...eastward in Eden..." [Gen.2:8] ceased to exist with "Noah's" flood.
