Genesis 5:4:

”The days of Adam after he fathered Seth were 800 years; and he had other sons and daughters.”

I think the place to make this argument is a few chapters later after the flood. Only two of every species. Except humans. iirc, there's Noah, his unnamed wife, and their three sons, Ham, Shem, and Japheth. I don't recall them having any daughters on board (might be wrong, it's been a while).

The sons had their wives too.

Still a lotta first cousin fuckin' goin' on though in the next generation.
