Do Cain and Abel's occupations agree with history?
Cain was a farmer, a tiller of the soil, and Abel was a herdsman. The first people were hunters and gatherers, but by six thousand years ago there were farmers and herdsmen, so if we ignore the thousands of years of pre-history, the occupations of Cain and Abel agree with known history although there is no historical reference to Cain and Abel themselves.After Cain killed Abel, he went to the land of Nod and built the first city. This does not make sense unless we consider the story of the death of Abel and the banishment of Cain as based on a quite separate myth than the stories of the their birth to Eve, since there was no one to help Cain build a city, and no one to occupy it. Although cities certainly existed six thousand years ago, this story does not agree with history.

How did they figure out how to build the first city in the Bible?
The first city was built by Cain. Genesis 4 says that before Cain was banished to Nod, God put a mark on him to protect him so that "no one who met him would kill him" - this implies that there were more people in Nod, although it gives us no explanation of who they were.Since God pronounced that his curse was to be a "homeless wanderer," it isn't much of a stretch to speculate that instead of taking his punishment, he built a city in another act of open rebellion - in keeping with his character - and named it after his son in an in-your-face way (insulting both God and Adam); and sought to create his own community in spite of his exile.
