Lilith is a predominant figure in many ancient writings as far back as 2500 BC and her origin has always been the same. She was created by the same means as Adam.

No, she's not that old. There's a claim that she's derivative of early Mesopotamian evil spirits but Lilith as the wife of Adam didn't come about until the 8th century at the very earliest. She didn't get popular until medieval times.
