There is a way to put your data in an HTML <table> and then import it 
using this importer

    
http://static.simile.mit.edu/exhibit/api-2.0/scripts/data/importers/html-table-importer.js

It goes something like this

    <link rel="exhibit/data" type="text/html" href="#the-table" />

    ...

    <table id="the-table" ex:type="Person">
       <tr>
           <th>label</th>
           <th>position</th>
           <th ex:valueType="date">join</th>
       </tr>
       <tr>
           <td>David Huynh</td>
           <td>researcher</td>
           <td>2001-09-01</td>
       </tr>
       ...
    </table>

There's more to it but I don't remember specifics. Johan and Gabriel 
know more about it than I do.
