It's right in the man page for xmodmap:

	  One  of  the more irritating differences between keyboards
	  is the location of the Control and  Shift  Lock  keys.   A
	  common  use  of  xmodmap is to swap these two keys as fol-
	  lows:

		  !
		  ! Swap Caps_Lock and Control_L
		  !
		  remove Lock = Caps_Lock
		  remove Control = Control_L
		  keysym Control_L = Caps_Lock
		  keysym Caps_Lock = Control_L
		  add Lock = Caps_Lock
		  add Control = Control_L
