head wounds

WHat are the various examples of head wounds in the Bible?

I can think of:
[1] David's killing of Goliath
[2] Jael's killing of Sisera
[3] An unnamed woman's killing of Abimelech
[4] One head of the beast

I think these all relate to the typology of the Seed of the woman crushing the head of Satan. (Gen. 3:14-15).
Thanks

I agree. God crushes the heads of his enemies.

Isn't that more of a neck wound or slit throat type deal?
