The executioners divided the garments of Jesus among themselves because

According to the Bible, when Jesus was crucified, the Roman soldiers who carried out the execution took his clothes and divided them into four parts, one for each of them. This was because in ancient times, it was customary for the executioners to receive the possessions of the person being executed as payment for carrying out the sentence. Therefore, the soldiers divided Jesus' garments among themselves, as they were his executioners. It was not because of the high quality or because Pontius Pilate ordered them to do so, but rather it was a customary practice at the time.
