What about (based on fa-list-ul):

That looks a little too much like a bulleted list for me... possibly with tree-style expander/collapser nodes.
When I think "timeline", what comes to mind is horizontal stuff like the direction people are going in #3915 (especially this one).

I agree.
In my opinion I prefer this one https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome/issues/3915#issuecomment-137683620 (the second and the third)
or this one https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome/issues/8107#issue-120863441

Actually, I was referring to both of the examples here. I just don't associate timelines with a column of dots with blocks beside them. That, to me, says "greeked representation of a list".
As for the other one you linked to, I'm not overly enthused by any of those.
While I recognize the project management software visualization that the first one evokes, it does not look like the general conception of a timeline.
As for the other two, having the timelines running through the boxes makes them look too much like stylized representations of abacuses.
The three things I intuitively associate with timelines as iconographic abstracts are:
- Time is the horizontal axis.
- The events are rectangles
- If they have lines, they're vertical lines, associating them with specific instants on the timeline along the bottom.
... like how these timelines do it:

- https://visjs.github.io/vis-timeline/examples/timeline/
- https://web.archive.org/web/20150312115622/http://mattbango.com/demos/pure-css-timeline/
Even the example Gantt charts on the Wikipedia article look more like that.

Then it's fa-timeline-h and what we are looking for would be something like this
or that
A more simplified version would be
