As yourself WHY? (Could this be accomplished by a new schema?)
If you still want to proceed ... clarify the version (Oracle8, Oracle8i, 8.1.6 ...) as Oracle-8 is not recognized and might be misinterpreted. And tell us the operating system
Decide whether it makes sense to have a new ORACLE_HOME or use the existing one. If you want us to answer that - tell us WHY you want a new database.
Optionally do a new install into a new Oracle Home based on 3)
Then, probably use dbca or Database Configuration Assistant if that's available in your environment.
