The Land of Nod was a region about the size of a 6 rural counties in Alabama,
inhabited by 17 descendants of Adam and Eve.
From yonder mountain to yonder valley,
they roamed and hunted and gathered.
It was their land and they knew this land
They were primitives, living aboriginal lives
close to nature close to God
Most likely with heightened and finely attuned senses
like a homing sense
like pigeons, and a sense of the night
like foxes and other animals that move in the night
and travelling from one side of their land to the other
took no effort and they did not tire easily
Surely Cain would be found
he set up camp and in time planted a garden
the natives noticed the irregularities
in the subtle ecosystem and in migratory patterns of animals.
they knew someone was there
and it maybe months before they encounter the intruder
but Cain had a mark that will protect him
it will protect him
but he will not be accepted into their tribe
This was not a city, nor a civilization
the Land of Nod was a wild jungle.
