I get where you are coming from, but there is some evidence of a “Jesus” in that rough time period, but who is to say that person was no different than the countless “Jesus” from Spanish counties.
This is more a question of historical fact about how common it was to entomb someone in a burial site with a stone rolled into place than it is a question of the factual nature of the story of “Jesus”.
The only religious implication is that Jesus is mentioned, which is important to the question, as that story is the source of the example.
“How common was it to entomb someone with a rolled stone doorway 2,000 years ago in the middle east?” Just dances around not mentioning Jesus for no other reason than protecting the feelings of people who are too sensitive about a story that they reject as having any sort of truth.
Be an adult. We can discuss aspects of Homer’s Odyssey, the story of Jesus, the tale of the resurrection of Osiris who was put back together by Isis but she had to make him a gold dick since his was eaten by a fish like adults.
You can’t ignore that he was Jesus Christ and replace him with a commoner because him being who he was is why they chose that method of internment. It doesn’t matter if he actually existed, or if the story is fictional. All that matters is that the choices were made based on the situation, whether a fairytale or fact.
Jesus was a spiritual leader and Messiah for one group, an agitator for another group, and a dissident and rebel for a third group. He was far from a commoner, and had thousands of followers in a time when that was a monumental feat.
A commoner wouldn’t be entombed like Jesus was. Jesus’ followers didn’t want the body desecrated. The Romans and Pharisees were concerned that his followers might steal his body and claim that he was resurrected. So the choice was made to intern him in a cave, and seal the door with an enormous boulder. That’s why this method was chosen. Ordinarily such a burial would be reserved for someone wealthy, since the manpower and resources required to do so was considerable.
Questions should be about factual history.

They should’ve asked without the religious implication.

Can you prove or disprove jesus or someone did not go throught what they did. Ignore the jesus part and just think of a commoner.

Thank you for the answer…no sarcasm.
Burden of proof is on you.
