If you've got your text in a float type environment (such as
\placetable), you can use the \rotate{} command.  Here's a small
example.  This will literally insert a landscape page, without a
header and without a footer.

----------

%output=pdf
\starttext

\input tufte

\startTEXpage

\rotate [height=210mm,
         width=297mm,
	 rotation=90]
    {\placetable{My Caption}{
       \bTABLE
       \bTR \bTD \eTD \bTD aaa\eTD \bTD b\eTD \eTR
       \bTR \bTD \eTD \bTD aaa\eTD \bTD b\eTD \eTR
       \bTR \bTD 11\eTD \bTD 111\eTD \bTD 5555\eTD \eTR
       \bTR \bTD 22\eTD \bTD 221\eTD \bTD 6655\eTD \eTR
       \eTABLE}}

\stopTEXpage

\doincrementpagenumber

\input tufte

\stoptext

----------

This example will float the table to the centre of the page, if you'd
like to anchor the float to the bottom of the page, you make have to
get out the \frame{} toolkit.

You want rotated chapter headings, headers and footers, etc., I've
never done that.
