One inscription said "Jesus, son of Joseph", another said "Mara", a common form of Mary, and another said "Yose", a common form of Joseph.

Why, then, didn't Jesus's ossuary read, "Jesus, son of Yose"?

[.. Why, then, didn't Jesus's ossuary read, "Jesus, son of Yose"? ..]

Because Jesus' name is NOT Jesus..
Hebrew and Aramaic have no "J's"..
"J's" come from Latin..
