Sumario:The article analyzes some image representations of Adam, Eve and Lilith. Creation of myths of origin, from the construction of towers to the foundation and destruction of cities, the Judeo-Christian narratives, with their specificities and junctions, perspectives and displacements, between legend, parable and chronicle, mix their factual existence with the wonderful and the divine. Narrators, poets and artists elaborate the imaginary continuity of their existence from Heaven to Earth and from Earth to the nether regions.
