Garden of Eden East Africa

Located near the territory of Prester John between Nubia and the city of Arin [Civitasarim], the latter prominently marked and centrally placed in the Horn of Africa, not far from the Indian Ocean in which six islands of various sixes and colors are depicted. Paradise is guarded by five high “Diamond Mountains” surmounted by flames. Within Paradise Adam and Eve are shown standing on either side of the Tree of Life. The single river originates in the middle of the Garden before flowing out of it into a lake, there after to separate into four streams. One legend, near Cape Verde, explains the equal duration of night and day at the equator and, another, close to Paradise, emphasizes that the delights of the Garden of Eden are incomparable with the features of any other earthly region
