From Noah to 8 Billion People

Scientific statistics shows that around 10,000 years ago between 1 on the low end and 10 million on the high end people were on the Earth, they're not quite sure how many, nor could they be.

From Noah and the flood estimated 4 to 6,000 years ago, an "absolute" time frame is impossible to calculate. How could eight or even six people populate the Earth to 8 billion in 5,000 years.

Do the calculation yourself? I did, starting with Adam and Eve and using the 6000 year frame
and indeed it is, and that's giving account to the millions, if not a billion that has died over that span of time.

ADDING

Females marrying and giving birth to children at a much younger age generally 12 to 15 years old, prior to 200 years ago and I'll even say 150. And this was in many if not most cultures.

Females were giving birth on average to seven children, sometimes much much more, 10 / 12.

And scientifically it cannot be proven as an absolute how many children survived in any family, it's all guess work. And just looking at my family tree history, and they were extremely poor, maybe one baby died per generation.
@Charity It can’t be scientifically proven because no statistics were kept for the general population. Millennia ago, all women had to give birth about six times just maintain the population.
There is no science in the fictional book nor is it a history book.

You started this by saying a statistic of ten thousand years, then you say six thousand years.

A book you should check out is "Guns, Germs, and Steel" by Jarad Diamond. It won a Pulitzer.
