The name "Calvary" does not occur in the Greek Bible; it is a Latin translation of Greek τοπον τον καλουμενον κρανιον, topon ton kaloumenon kranion, "Place th[at is] called 'of [a] skull.'" The King James Bible uses the name in Luke 23:33, based presumably on the Latin Vulgate's "locum qui vocatur Calvariea," "place which is called Calvariea/skull," although modern translations almost universally avoid the name; of the ancient translations, only the Georgian has the Latin name. - RBW
