Smith's Bible Dictionary

Ashnah:

the name of two cities, both in the lowlands of Judah:

(1.) named between Zoreah and Zanoah, and therefore probably northwest of Jerusalem (Joshua 15:33); and

(2.) between Jiptah and Nezib, and therefore to the southwest of Jerusalem (Joshua 15:43). Each, according, to Robinson's map (1857) would be about 16 miles from Jerusalem.
