Genesis 2:10

And a river flows out of Eden [the entire area where the garden was located was also called Eden] to water the garden, and from there it divides and becomes four headwaters. [This can be understood as four rivers converging in the area of Eden and becoming a single river as it flows through the Garden of Eden.]
