yet another scifi question

since this seems to be "remember a sci-fi book from your childhood" week, i thought i'd pose my own. the story is your basic time-travel adventure, between "today" (read:1950s) and ancient Byzantium. it involved time traveling under the moniker of "shunting" and involved some steamy sex scenes that certainly were fun when i was 13 and reading it. any help?
A couple more possibilities: Lest Darkness Fall, a classic by L. Sprague DeCamp; and There Will Be Time, by Poul Anderson.
There are really only so many sci-fi novels dealing with Byzantium.

Best answer: It's "Down the Line", by Robert Silverberg.

Odinstream, yours is A Tale of Time City by Diana Wynne Jones, I believe.
