maybe a fantasy map of the garden eden and its surroundings? similar to the atlantis/lemuria map by Cireon and others? The foir rivers and the rasin(s) could make a nice interesting geography.
basicly there is a theory. It has never been proven, but it is entirely possible, and perhaps even likely, that it is true:
Several thousand years ago, what is now the Persian Gulf was still land. There was no sea there yet. Instead, there was a large valley or basin into which four rivers flowed.
It is hypothesized that the Garden of Eden, or some ancient civilization even older than Uruk, was located in this territory, which is now flooded and covered by water.
There are several indications that this hypothesis could be correct. For example, aerial and satellite imagery shows that this area was once a real landscape, with ancient riverbeds. Settlements have also been found along what was once the ancient coastline.
This also matches the actual geographyand climate of that time. Several thousand years ago, sea levels were indeed lower.
Many flood myths from the Middle East and the Ancient Near East also point in the same direction. The Epic of Gilgamesh is the oldest known story that mentions such a great flood. The stories found in the Bible, in the Old Testament, and from which the Old Testament was later compiled, largely originate from this same cultural region. Flood myths are also very common there.
Here are some pictures:
There are still some names of political entities of that region of that time preserved in the excavated writings of the Uruk culture, so theoretically have have some ideas for territoriy and region names. and the rest can simply be fantasised, just like the atlantis map.
Here is also some info on the topic:
