Answer 2

You're not kidding, are you? Look, even so much human history as we can know is a vast vast thing. You may just as well ask for a timeline of the grains of sand on your nearest beach. I know this will not win me the bronze ring, but you have to narrow your perspective. If you know what you can about some particular place and time, you can broaden your knowledge from there.

You have lots of websites all over the internet with history timelines. Just search yahoo.com for history timelines. One example of good world history overview is at historyexplorer.net
