Summary/Abstract: Recent sciences provide more evidences that indicate the fact that the Earth is a young planet, of only a few thousand years, not of billion, as the germ hypothesis affirmed. We can place the human creation within the limit of ten thousand years. The “long chronology”, regarding the Old Testament, seems to be the most conclusive, being harmonized the best with the biblical and archaeological data. Even if an ancient - testamentary chronology cannot be yet accurately established, however this is harmonized well enough in the historic context of the events.
