Hm... that might be the right word. I had always associated cosmology with "the beginning of outer space" but I suppose it also refers to "the beginning of things".

Eschatology has to do more with "end of humankind", then "end of things". So, if Eschatology is concerned with the final events of history, or the ultimate destiny of humanity, then Anthropogeny is concerned with study of human origins.
Antropogeny comes from Greek anthropo- (study of humans) + Greek -geny (study of the birth and gender of humans).
But, if you want to take it in more general sense i.e. "final events of history", as history1 can be of human, earth, or cosmos, then it is Cosmogony.
The word comes from the Koine Greek κοσμογονία (from κόσμος "cosmos, the world") and the root of γί(γ)νομαι / γέγονα ("come into a new state of being").4 In astronomy, cosmogony refers to the study of the origin of particular astrophysical objects or systems, and is most commonly used in reference to the origin of the Universe, the Solar System, or the Earth–Moon system.
And on the theological side, you can consider Theogony : "the genealogy or birth of the gods."
