Ah yes, Calvary
the English word for the place Jesus was crucified
taken from the Latin Calvaria
which is a translation of the Biblical Greek kraniou topos (Matthew 27:33, Mark 15:22)
which in English could mean “place of a skull”
or topon ton kaloumenon kranion “place which is called skull” (Luke 23:33)
or kraniou topon (John 19:17)
also called Golgotha
which is a transliteration from Hebrew to Greek to English (Mt 27:33, Jhn 19:17)
or Golgotha topon “place of Golgotha” (Mk 15:22)
which maybe was taken from the same word as Hebrew galgal or gulgoleth?
