The correct answer to this question is The Place of a Skull. Golgotha is also known as Calvary. It is a little outside of Jerusalem, where the crucifixion of Jesus occurred. The books of Matthew and Mark in the Bible are where Golgotha is translated to the meaning of the place of a skull.

The hill of Golgotha was shaped like a skull, which is where this translation comes from. Though the exact location of the execution is unknown, it is thought to have been somewhere at Golgotha. It is known that Jesus was crucified on a public road.
