Scripture doesn't give Cain's age upon his death but I expect, like Adam's lineage, he died under age 1,000 (i.e. within a millennial day).   However, some of Cain's later descendants had to cross over the Flood (1655-1656 from Creation) with Noah as the "beasts" (i.e. some from each of the four river regions) (For examples see: Genesis 4:19-22; 9:18,22,25-27; 10:15-20; 13:7; 15:19-21).

Earlier, Cain apparently married one or more of Adam's daughters and Adam's lineage married Cain's daughters as the women assume the lineage of their husband.   The exception has always been whoredom and concubines where men take the wives of others (Genesis 6:1-4).

Note: (1) Ham apparently took Naamah as his concubine, a legitimate pseudo wife, when Naamah's true husband died in the Flood.   Therefore, the children born to Ham and Naamah were, under GOD, the legitimate sons and heirs of Naamah's true husband, a Kenite, not Ham (See: Genesis 38:8-9; Ruth 4:10; GOD'S Marriage Laws: etc.).

(2) Jabal, Jubal, and Tubalcain were apparently amongst those on the ark with Noah.   How else could they be the instructor of every?, the father of every?, etc. (Genesis 4:19-22).

Initially, when Cain was evicted from dwelling in Eden that eviction was permanent for him (Genesis 4:11-17).   However, his later generations apparently had been allowed to return and both helped build Noah's great floating city, the extensive raft-like ark, and survived with Noah.   Noah and his three sons both ruled and represented each of the four river regions.   Again, some of Cain's descendants from each of the four river regions were with Noah on the ark as "beasts."

When people excavate the City of Chanoch and the remnant of Noah's great ark North of Tayma', Saudi Arabia there should be found all sorts of related records and revelations.

The ancient (preflood) map in the Iraqi Museum, Baghdad, Iraq is a map of the Edenic Valley.   This map is called the "Nuzi" (GA.SUR) map found in Yorghan Tepe, Iraq in 1930-31.   Toward the top (Eastward i.e. toward the sunrise) are the low mountains of Yemen and the Hejaz (now Western Saudi Arabia); to the bottom (Westward) are the low mountains of Eastern Egypt, Sudan, and Ethiopia; to the right (Southward) is the Strait of Bab al-Mandab, the Sea of Reeds, and the Indian Ocean (portions of this sector have been lost - broken off); and to the left (Northward) is the Sinai Peninsula through which the River of Egypt once flowed.

The main river shown traversing through the midst of the preflood valley was the modern Jordan River which then extended through the Edenic Valley unto the Indian Ocean via the Strait of Bab al-Mandab and the Sea of Reeds.

A second significant river flowed from the low mountains of Eastern Egypt/Sudan to join the Jordan midway through the 1,000 mile long Edenic Valley.   Also, a corner or segment of the Nile river may be seen on this ancient map.

The tiny roll seals now on display in the museum in Damascus, Syria provide an alternate view of Noah and the Edenic Valley, a cross section, as viewed from the region of the Strait of Bab al Mandab (i.e. as viewed from South to North).

One seal shows people standing on the low mountains on either side (East and West) of the Edenic Valley as they watch a man standing in the valley.   The valley is sinking so only the head and shoulders of the man are visible as he holds an ancient saw over his head.

That seal is significant in that it, again like the ancient map, shows low mountains on either side of the valley and that the floor of the valley was sinking. The man with the saw, of course, represents Noah.

Other seals apparently depict scenes from Noah's around-the-world journey.   Therein Noah is shown seated upon a box-like structure.   The box-like structure appears to represent the Holy of Holies with the throne room atop just as found in the design of the ancient Temples.   Thus, the seals indicate that Noah's Ark contains a Temple-like structure apparently centered near the midst of the four square raft-like city of Noah ... a city later reflected in the Levitical City about the Temple.

About 1963, if memory is not too flawed, in the Red Sea, off shore from Port Sudan, in the vicinity of a reef called in English "The Roman Reef," a group of people headed by Jacques Yves Cousteau undertook to dwell in an experimental undersea habitat.

In setting up this habitat the sea bottom was such that it caused the habitat to slide to a much greater depth than planned.   The habitat and its occupants were then serviced by a saucer-like submersible that made repeated trips to and from the habitat.

The sliding of the habitat undoubtedly caused the crew of the saucer-like sub to see certain things that otherwise may have gone unnoticed.

Now, in their myriad trips, the crew on the submersible noted a strange road-like structure that traversed from reef to reef.   In fact, it appeared so much like a roadway that they dubbed it, "The Andean Highway."

The intriguing aspect is that ancient land based communities became encased and covered by earth and are called "tells."   Therefore, would not ancient structures of the sunken Edenic Valley become encased by coral and other marine growths to form reefs?   Where does "The Andean Highway" eventually lead?   And what of ancient Eden awaits to be found in the Red Sea?

"His glory covered the heavens ..." may also refer to the cloud atop GOD'S Holy Ark, the first Holy Ark that crossed the flood with Noah.   Noah then brought it to Kiriat Arba (Hebron) where it was eventually passed down unto Jacob who hid it before sojourning to Egypt to reunite with Joseph.

But back to Noah's great floating raft-like city ... Where is it resting today?

If I were to physically search, I'd begin at a point in the An Nufud (desert) about 62 miles North of the center of Tayma on a bearing of 014° measured from the center of Tayma.

Happy hunting!
