It's par for the course for this site, but people actually trying to use an ancient book of desert fables to prove something about the world around us? Utterly hilarious.. and sad, too.
The bible is so demonstrably wrong in the things it purports, it is ludicrous to use it as some sort of historical evidence for something oranything for that matter. The story of genesis is bunk. The earth is not 6000 years old. The earth is in no way flat.
Sure, it's your prerogative to quibble over details and argue semantics about crap written in an ancient book, but geez... what a waste of time. Surely the fact that the people who wrote the bible were very obviously completely ignorant about earth sciences and got mostly everything wrong shows that it most certainly wasn't divinely inspired?
Religion is just a cancer that has sadly lived on into the modern day, despite the fact that it is detrimental to the world as a whole even if it may help some people on a personal level.
