I once read where Jerome wrote to a female parishoner that he wanted to see repentant tears in her hollow cheek, which to me is a red flag that these fallen angels or watchers were perhaps religious figures who conspired to make women subserviant. It is beleived that the next attempt at plant domestication occured in the region of Gobleki Tepe, so perhaps this is the land of Nod (wandering) that Cain settled in, east of Eden (Genesis 4:16).
