I had a start location with three Cattle and a Floodplain to the south, but I don't have an image any more :(
 
A really good start location has a river, preferably with several cattle around it. (Can you say "Settler Factory"?) I have come to dread flood plains in my start loc, you are taking a chance with disease. Once while starting as Russians on flood plains, I improved my floodplain tiles and started on settlers. You guessed it - as settler was almost done in size 3 Moscow, "Disease strikes Moscow". After the 3rd such message in 6 or 7 turns, I reached down and flipped the power switch on my PC. Take that, disease.
 
My best starting place (I actually remember it, I need to lay off the civ3) is:

One forest, 4 Bonus Grassland, and the rest was all grassland, 2 Rivers, 3 cattle, 1 wheat, and ivory on the forest.
 
Here's my personal best...
