Calvary

kal′va-ri, n. the name of the place where Jesus was crucified: ( R.C. ) a series of representations of the various scenes of Christ's crucifixion: an eminence crowned with one or three cro es bearing life-size figures of Jesus and the two thieves. [The Anglicised form of the Vulgate calvaria , which was the L. rendering of the Gr. kranion , as that again of the Aramaic gogulthō or gogolthā (Heb. gulgōleth —Græcised form golgotha ), all three words meaning skull.]
