Which is the more notable title? Son of Joseph or Bishop of Jerusalem?
I don't remember the dimensions of the box, but it just seems like if he was The James, it might say Bishop and Martyr on the box since it was also a big deal to be martyred.

Son of Joseph is not an unusual inscription, brother of is the more unusual unless your brother is extremely well known. Many accomplishments of James could have been listed (assuming this is the right James). Not sure whether there were space limitations on the ossuary or not.

James had a nick-name of "Camel Knees" it might be interesting to see if the knee bones are preserved enough to reflect this.
