There is no record of this in The Bible. David also would not have known this place at that time. It referred to the name it had acquired in Jesus' time, presumably as a place of execution.

The Bible does state in 1 Samuel17:54 "And David took the head of the Philistine, and brought it to Jerusalem;" So As we can see David used it as a trophy.

The bible states that David took the head of Goliath to Jerusalem.

And David took the head of the Philistine, and brought it to Jerusalem; 1.Sam 17,54

Now exactly where in Jerusalem he took it we do not know. Some assume he took it to Golgotha. This is only an assumption and cannot be proven.

The word Golgotha in Hebrew has no relation to the word Goliath.

For a picture of Golgotha, which looks like a cranium, the top part of a head, see the link below.

No. There is no suggestion of this in the story of David and Goliath. David brought Goliath's head back to Jerusalem, and being summoned by King Saul, brought it into the king's presence (1 Samuel 17:54-57).

However, the gospels say that Jesus was crucified at a place called Golgotha, which was translated as the place of the skull.
