Golgotha: Place of the skull. In three references ( Mat 27:33, Mark 15:22 & John 19:17 it is interpreted to mean “kraniou topos” The place of a skull. In

Luke 23:33 the King James version it is called “Calvary”, but in the

Revised Version it is simply “the skull”. From the New Testament

we may gather that it was outside the city (Heb 13:12) but close to it

(John 19:20), apparently near some public thoroughfare (Mat 27:39), coming from the country (Mark 15:21) was a spot visible

from some point from afar (Mark 5:40: Luke 23.49)
