I guess it was a play on the "place of the skull" although that was Golgotha where he was crucified. Anyway, the actual tomb is deemed to be in the Armenian section of the city... southwest... and it has been believed to be so since the second century. The northeast tomb is simply a very late comer to the issue.

Yes sir..
Actually the alleged city of Jerusalem of old and the alleged streets where Jesus walked are not what they say they are either.
The city & streets Jesus walked are long, long, since gone, destroyed and never to be seen again.
But... the natural features of the Biblical Land are there to see and, I hear, are beautiful to behold.
