Back on topic, the Middle-East is greater then just Afghanistan, but just because one part of the game plays in Afghanistan, and just because we see Eli in the trailer, it's instantly assumed Eli is in Afghanistan...but there's nothing in that whole scene that tells Eli is in Afghanistan, and he's carrying a shell with him, last I know there's no seashells in Afghanistan. The seashell could be an item that is meaningful to him.

And I pointed out on another discussion that the patterned rug in the background is very Middle Eastern.

And people have also indicated about the teeth on his necklace that may or may not be jackal teeth.

For all we know, the cave he's in could very well be somewhere else in the world, but it does seem to be in Afghanistan.
