“And they came to the place that is called Golgotha, which is the place of skull.” (Matthew 27:33)

So Golgotha is the “place of the skull.” But if you’ve ever studied Hebrew, you may have realized a difficulty with the Bible’s claim. Golgotha doesn’t mean anything close to “skull” in Hebrew, Aramaic, or any other language. It’s a big problem.
