Abstract

The rock of Golgotha is situated inside the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. The Church itself hasn't kept the initial design (4th c.) by reason of the earthquakes, fires or invasions. After 614, there was no century without demolishing. There are different assumptions concerning history of its construction. The aim of the article is systematization of various scholars' opinions of the architectural design of Golgotha during the reign of Constantine the Great. It is consistently shown the use of different study methods caused a divergence of researchers' opinions.
