Most probably it's not "sewage" water but "corpse decomposition water"

corpse decomposition water won't last 2000+ years especially if not frozen. Probably the coffin was porous or had crack from where the sewage water seeped into the coffin from a nearby leaking sewage pipeline.

If that's the case - then it's quite precious. Analysis of this water would reveal a lot.
