Skullyville is a small unincorporated rural community in Le Flore County, Oklahoma, United States. Skullyville was the former capitol of the Choctaw Nation and a stop on the California Road. Walker's Station, a stage stand on the Butterfield Overland Mail route, was located in Skullyville. The name is derived from the Choctaw word for money, "iskulli" or "iskuli", as originally this was the place where annuity payments were collected.
The community is part of the Fort Smith, Arkansas-Oklahoma Metropolitan Statistical Area.
