Find places near a location

Biblical places within a radius, nearest first, with the distance in kilometres. Anchor on a place already in the knowledge base, or on a bare latitude and longitude when asking about a modern location that has no document here.

~1,300 places carry coordinates. Many sites are identified only tentatively — check contested and identifications on the place document before treating a position as settled.
