Does anyone know what “the mark of Cain” was? I have never heard exactly what it was.

That’s never been perfectly clear. The Hebrew word is ’owth, and Strong’s Dictionary lists the various meanings:
probably from “uwth” (in the sense of appearing); a signal (literally or figuratively), as a flag, beacon, monument, omen, prodigy, evidence, etc.:—mark, miracle, (en-)sign, token.

There’s nothing about exactly what the mark was, but he did head east from there.
