This is a very difficult question for humanity already existed before the earth existed, humanity lived on other planets before travelling to earth.
But humanity is created by what you call the good gods, and the good gods are offspring of the evil ones, and without any right to do so the Lord of the Gods created mankind...
If one believes in evolution then it is pretty much sure that the humanity arose originally on the African continent, even though new fossil evidence has been discovered in the Australasian region, but its to early to tell about that. Hunter gatherers though are known to have spread from Africa.
If one is looking at creationism the general consensus is the "Garden of Eden" (or a place that could resemble slightly a mythical place like that) existed in the Mesopotamian region, the cradle of civilisation or if you prefer the fertile crescent.
Civilised humanity? Well, there was the afore mentioned tribal "cultures", though once again it seems generally that Fertile Crescent Region was the birthing place of such a thing.

Once again I find myself in agreement with debbiejo.
Humanity started as an idea in God's head, then a word:
First God said "Let there be Light", and there was light.
Then God said some other things.
Later God said "Let there be a whole bunch of a**holes who
f*** up all my other creations", and then there was Man.
Not at all, Marduk cleaved mother in two and from Kingu's blood he created mankind. See: The Great Battle www.geocities.com/sickyzero
