First Samuel 17:54

And David took the head of the Philistine and brought it up to Jerusalem, but he left his equipment (weapons, armor) in his tent.
[Why did David carry Goliath's head to Jerusalem? At that time, there was a place called the Skull Place on the Mount of Olives, where the peoples who lived in the land before Israel used to gather the heads of those they had defeated in battle. It is possible that David knew about this and therefore took the head there. If so, it was a way for David to show the Jebusites, who still lived in Jerusalem, what he had done. It is also an image of Jesus defeating Satan at the Skull Place.]
