Lara consulted him with two artifacts, to determine their origin, He asks her to leave them with him for further examination.

He is later murdered by the Daughter of Matsu, to retrieve the relics to fulfill the Solarii Worshipers' plan.

Trivia
Cahalane appears in the Tomb Raider: The Ten Thousand Immortals, though it makes no sense, since Ten Thousand immortals takes place a year after Yamatai, according to Lara, but he dies only a few weeks after Yamatai in the comics.
