Timeline creation software

[macstatic]

What free software can be used to make a timeline chart/image?
All I can find are expensive shareware/commercial apps which in my opinion won't justify the one timeline I'm going to make.

I would look at openoffice and it's powerpoint program or some project managing software. How you put your timeline is just up to you and what idea you have to set it up. One basic idea is just do it on a paper and scan it into your computer for further use.
