The Bible doesn't say rib, it says SIDE. Eve was made from the side of
Adam because Adam was parted in two to make Eve. Originally Adam and Eve
were one. Read Aristophanes' speech in Plato's Symposium which makes the
origin of the Bible story clear especially when Socrates cites the
original source.

Even if Plato and/or Aristophanes knew about the Genesis story,
it doesn’t make their fanfic part of the Biblical canon.

The Bible was written AFTER Plato's Symposium took place. The story
already existed in Athens in 416 BC before Genesis was even composed.
Socrates knew of the story from an old woman he met decades earlier so
we can assume it was doing the rounds since at least 450 BC

Greece was around since the Paleozoic period. Moses didn't exist until
the time of the Exodus in around 1200 BC at the same time as the Trojan
War. Long before that the Mycenaeans arrived and ruled over Greece and Troy.

 such is history.
 BTW 1500 BCE.
 

1193 BC +/- 2.5 years is the date the Bible gives. If Manetho is used the date is 1193 BC exactly assuming Ramses II's reign ended in 1212 BC.
