Hm, in A Survivor is Born the documents from Trinity that Lara finds refer to Himiko as the Star Phenomenon instead of the Sun Queen and in the canonical tie in comic arc, Choice and Sacrifice, Trinity believes that there was some sort of connection between Himiko and the Divine Source. Also, in Rise of the Tomb Raider, Jacob states that the Divine Source is not, in fact, Divine but never states where he found it or where it came from.

Also relevant, both Himiko's soul transfer and the DS granting those who looked upon it immortality, share the same blue glow. One review of Rise I saw a while back was that, due to Himiko attempting to transfer her soul to Sam the review believed that Sam was either connected to whatever gave Himiko and the Divine Source their powers and that Sam would be able to sense where similar artifacts are and that is how she would be involved in TR3 or TR4's plots.

And given all we've learned about Himiko and the Divine Source it does seem likely that the two are somehow connected. Its possible that the Star Phenomenon the Trinity agent in the hidden Document in Survivor mentioned i the source of these two cases. And given the name its very likely that whatever the Star Phenomenon is or was something that fell to Earth centuries ago. Its also possible that whoever is running Trinity, the Mysterious Voice heard in Rise & Choice and Sacrifice, is one of these immortals who is attempting to gather these artifacts.

Either for more power or because what gave him his immortality is dying and he needs a replacement or both. What is clear is that the series is setting up that there is some sort of connection and the next game will continue to explore this connection at least a little bit.
