This template constructs a vertically arranged timeline. The editor defines 2D rectangles (bars) and optional annotations (notes). The header is customizable. A scale appears on the left, and annotations appear on the right. An optional legend appears at the foot. Has built-in compatibility for geological divisions.

If the template doesn't detect the correct name automatically, then add it in manually like this:
In some homes, there were upwards of three kitchens. The kitchens were divided based on the types of food prepared in them.
