    We know where Ethiopia is. Most of Africa and some parts of Asia was referred to as Ethiopia (people of burnt faces), Pison is the gold coast which includes most of west Africa (Ghana etc), and the other 2 rivers covers the Mesopotamia (Syria, Iraq etc). So Eden is a big place.

    What do you mean by burnt faces, people of color, because there are darl skin people in all of those countries. Just trying to understand were you going with this statement.

    The word Ethiopia is comprised of 2 words burnt and face so its meaning is "burnt faced" ie reddish-brown nothing derogatory about the name just the fact they were made from the reddish-brown dust of the earth.All of mankind are very beautiful if you look closely at each one and see the loving hand of our Heavenly Fathers in them.

    God gave man his main instructions, his symbol of authority, that is to manage the earth.

    You can search and find all these rivers and all the lands they are in. Try bible maps. I could tell you but it will be more fun for you and help you by doing it yourselves.
