    Abstract:
    This is the paper I gave at the Public Archaeology Twitter Conference 3 (2019). The conference theme was storytelling in archaeology. The paper is an archaeological comic. Each panel of the comic was one tweet. The whole comic was composed by threading the tweets. The comic tells the story of the discovery and excavation (2014-15) of a site in north Wiltshire, interpreted as the ruined remains of Bincknoll Chapel. The chapel had previously only been known about from documentary sources. The comic was based on information from the two excavation reports published in volumes of the Wiltshire Archaeological and Natural History Society Magazine.
