Budding archaeologist Youth inspires archaeologists

Abram Sorensen is a serious amateur archaeologist with three years' field- work behind him — who just happens to be 13.

The Holladay youth has earned the praise of professional archaeologists in the State Antiquities Section. He is "an inspiration even to us who have been doing it for 30 years," said Kevin Jones, manager of the section.
Ron Rood, an archaeologist with the section, adds "Abram has grown from a kid that likes to dig up stuff and find artifacts to a budding scientist who is really starting to understand the science and documentation process in archaeology.
