As I recall (and I don't have a Bible handy so don't quote me on this),
the descendents of Adam and Eve mingled with other humans in nearby
villages.  In other words, there were already human colonies established
elsewhere at the time of Cain and Able.

Now don't everyone jump all over me because I CAN'T verify this right
now.  But this is what I recall.
