"In these three gospels the Greek word "Golgotha" is used and it means as we read in Matthew "a place of a skull." The Hebrew and the Greek word were the same and therefore it was a commonly known name.
Luke uses the Greek word "Calvary" rather than Golgotha. "And when they were come to the place, which is called Calvary, there they crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand, and the other on the left" (Luke 23:33). This word in Greek means cranium, or skull and all four gospels identify this spot outside of the gates of Jerusalem as the place where Jesus was placed on a cross. Therefore, the place where Jesus was crucified was a knoll or hill on the outskirts of Jerusalem that was made up of rock shaped like a man's skull and both the Romans and the Jews knew this place by the same name."

That is the best illustration of the Golgotha I´ve ever seen. Nice. May I add that the wall there, surrounding Jerusalem, at that same point was crumbled during those years. The gates of the city where located on opposite sides of the city, so, under normal conditions if people wanted to go to the Golgotha they needed to make a huge rounding inside the walled city to get there.
But with the crumbled wall they just simply took a short route jumped it arriving to site in a snap.... so, the whole 12 steps of Jesus Christ, the Passion of Cruxifiction was a hoax, and invention of the catholic church in medieval times. It never happened.
