In explanation of these different modes of speaking, the Benedictine Editor comments thus Cat. xiii. § 4, note 1.:  “The Church of the Resurrection was built on part of the hill Golgotha (intra montem G.):  but the actual rock on which our Lord was crucified was not within the limits of the Church, yet not far off, namely about “a stone’s throw,” as the author of the Jerusalem Itinerary says.  For the Church had been built on the site of the Sepulchre.  Some think that the place of Crucifixion was included in the vast area which was enclosed with colonnades between the Sepulchre and the Basilica,…that Golgotha was midway between the Basilica of the Crucifixion, and the Anastasis or Sepulchre.  But the area in question Constantine paved with stones, and it must therefore have been flat, as we learn from Eusebius Vit. Const. iii. c. 35.; Golgotha, on the contrary, stood up high Cat. x. § 19; xiii. § 39., and moreover shewed a cleft made there at Christ’s death xiii. § 39., which would either have been a hindrance to the paving or covered up by it.  In addition to this, from the doors of the Basilica there seems to have been a view of the Sacred Tomb Eus. Vit. Const. iii. c. 36..  This would have been obstructed if Golgotha had been between them.”
