[2] On April 12, 1909, Boheti, who owned a plot of land in Lindi, was hired by palaeontologists Werner Janensch and Edwin Hennig as a guide.

He travelled with Hennig to the village of Ubolelo,[1] roughly 15 km (9.3 mi) from Tendaguru Hill,[2] uncovering deposits worthy of future excavation.

From October onwards, Boheti was involved in preparing a find dubbed "Skeleton S",[1] two partial individuals which Janensch used as the holotype and lectotype of Brachiosaurus brancai.

[1] Boheti was sporadically involved in subsequent operations between 1925 and 1926, under William Edmund Cutler and Frederick Migeod.

[1] Boheti bin Amrani was commemorated in a 1998 booklet, Dinosauria wa Tendaguri (Dinosaurs of Tendaguru), which featured a character by the name of Mzee Buheti.
