Two creatures were made form dirt, and one was not.
Genesis 1:27 (NIV) states: "So God created mankind
in his own image, in the image of God he created them;
male and female he created them."
This clearly indicates that
Adam and the first woman were created simultaneously.
However, what took place next
is very unclear since we need to jump
from Genesis 1:27 to Genesis 2:22-23 to find Eve.
It is difficult to understand why it is that
Eve was created from the rib of Adam in a
separate action, because that makes her Adam's
second wife, and the third person that God created.
Conclusion:
Eve was among the first humans *and* the exception.
She was not made from the dirt of the Earth.

None; we were made out of spatial objects; Earth itself origins from a cluster of rocks
