Adam's burial spot?

[Momma2BooNDBDB]

I had one of the Christian television networks on while I made lunch for my little boys today.  When the program I was watching finished, a man was speaking (at a conference type set-up) and he was talking about "giants"...had a visual aid of a huge skull to show how much bigger Goliath would have been to David. 

Anyway...I wasn't listening too closely because I was dealing with my little boys, but he made a comment about "the Place of the Skull" being the spot where Adam was buried....which is also where Christ was crucified.  Is this accurate?  I grabbed my Bible to read Matthew 27:33 as that was a verse the speaker quoted...but it simply names the "place of the skull".

Help?  Thanks.

There are many legends in regards to this but they are just that ...  legends. There is no proof to any of this. The ancient legend says that Golgotha (the place of the skull) got it's name because it was supposedly the place that Shem had deposited Adams skull which was supposedly handed down to him from Noah.

Personally I find this hard to believe as it is recorded that Adam was buried and it is commonly thought that the people of that time did not hold that kind of a tradition. People were buried and left there.

Others say that Golgotha got it's name because of the many people crucified there and many skulls were left strewn around. I find this one much more plausible as the Bible tells us of  Jezabel and Pharao's baker being left abandoned to become prey to birds and beasts (2 Kings 9:35; Genesis 40:19, 22). So it would figure that some would have had this done to them there also.
