What centers of civilization other than egypt and mesopotamia developed in the middle east?

I assume you mean ancient times. In the early times of human civilization other centers of civilization in this area were the Persians. Additionally, on the shores of the Mediterranean the Phoenicians were developing their culture.

It depends on what you believe, if you’re christian that you would have been told that the first humans were created by god and that we’re all decedent's from adam and eve but scientist say otherwise
