    Out of curiousity, I have also used Stone to Flesh scroll on it. Nothing happens except that it starts to act like a normal skeleton: its animation is active (you can see its parts of the body moving).It did not go hostile.
    I think that the creators wanted the skeleton to be totally motionless, and the Petrification State seemed the best for this.

    As far as I remember, it looks like it is viewing one of the paintings. Someone tells you (perhaps the guy from Ulgoth's Beard who arranges tours to the tower) that someone was petrified from a trap on the painting or something similar.

    I also remember something like that.
    However, (if I correctly interpret your post) if someone is petrified by a trap, why does (s)he become a skeleton while in stonedead state? Bizarre a bit.
