Eve... No. - H. sapiens idaltu, perhaps.
- Mitochondrial “Eve” (matrilineal MRCA) – 143,000 ya
( H. sapiens sapiens evolved ~130,000 ya )

That has faded slowly over the years to each desendent.
1000
900
850
800 etc
Moses I think was 140ish? The interesting fact about this is after it hit an all time low where people were getting married at puberty for sake of short life spans it started to grow longer and longer. Point being? No idea what brought us down or up but let's hope we keep climbing.

During the time when and just after humans were first created they lived very long lives. If you read the bible you will notice that as you read, the lives of the people get shorter and shorter and you will notice now that our life spans are getting shorter, the only thing keeping us alive when we reach a certian point is medical advances. Which God has granted to us through the wisdom that He gave us.

Adam and Eve were the first man and woman.
All mankind are descended from them.

Yes they were human. It wasn't until after the flood that lifespans topped out at 120years.

Adam and Eve are myths.

Oh come on! It's only an allegory, and even the people who wrote the bible knew that.
