Golgotha

Japanese: ゴルゴタ
Golgotha
A hill on the outskirts of Jerusalem. Its name means "skull." It is called Calvaria in Latin and Calvary in English. Christ was crucified here (Matthew 27, etc.). It is also said to have been the site of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, the tomb of Adam, the ancestor of man. A small building built after the end of the Middle Ages with a crucifixion figure at the top and depictions of the Stations of the Cross is called a "Calvario."
