        DefinitionShort: the bony framework of the head, especially the upper portion

        Glosses: skull (in the NT κρανίον is used only as a name for the hill of Golgotha).

        Comments: In rendering κρανίου τόπος ‘place of the skull’ it may be necessary to indicate clearly the relationship between place and skull. A literal rendering of such a phrase might simply mean ‘a place where there was a skull.’ However the meaning of Golgotha has been interpreted generally as ‘a hill resembling a skull’ and therefore κρανίου τόπος may be more satisfactorily rendered as ‘a place resembling a skull’ or ‘a hill looking like a skull.’ See {D:93.453}.
