He looks comfy.

Do materials disintegrate easily in the 2000 yr old graves? ( I realize that it depends on enviromental conditions)But this grave looks like it is, somewaht, in a dry place. Most of the skeletons look as if they were buried naked.

Depends on the pH of the soil. Acidic soil tends to dissolve even bones over time.
