Where are Adam and Eve buried?
Where are Adam and Eve buried? The cave of Machpelah, in the West Bank city of Hebron, is the burial place of the Matriarchs and Patriarchs: Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Sarah, Rebecca, and Leah. According to Jewish mystical tradition, it's also the entrance to the Garden of Eden where Adam and Eve are buried.
Why was the tomb of Eve destroyed?
A 1928 article in TIME magazine suggests that that Eve's grave was demolished by religious authorities who feared it would lead Muslim faithful astray—into shirq, idolatry. Other sources report that the landmark vanished beneath urban development projects in the 1940s.
