I would also recommend natural tables. But, for tables, you can use 
\Lower(dims){....} to improve vertical alignment. For example:

\starttext

\starttable[|c|c|]
\NC {\bf Eons} \NC {\bf Eras} \NC \AR
\HL
\NC Hadeon Eon \VL \NC \AR
\HL
\NC \VL Eoarchean Era \NC \AR
\DC \DL[1] \DR
\NC \Lower(1\lineheight){Archaeon Eon} \VL Paleoarchean Era \NC \AR
\DC \DL[1] \DR
\NC \VL Mesoarchean Era \NC \AR
\DC \DL[1] \DR
\NC \VL Neoarchean Era \NC \AR

\HL\NC \VL Paleoproterozoic Era \NC \AR
\DC \DL[1] \DR
\NC Proterozoic Eon \VL Mesoproterozoic Era \NC \AR
\DC \DL[1] \DR
\NC \VL Neoproterozoic Era \NC \AR
\HL


\HL\NC \VL Paleozoic Era \NC \AR
\DC \DL[1] \DR
\NC Phanerozoic Eon \VL Mesozoic Era \NC \AR
\DC \DL[1] \DR
\NC \VL Cenozoic Era \NC \AR
\HL
\stoptable

\stoptext
