I'm thinking this is your best bet, but it's not heavy on setting material (though it does have some historical notes to give the classes and equipment context.)Green Ronin's Skull & Bones and Testament are both mythical takes on historical eras on earth. Green Ronin's Mindshadows (much like WotC's OA and its web enhancement) is a bit more of "Fantasy inspired by real history" like Nyambe and less like the mythical takes on history that those first two mythic vistas books are.Second World Sourcebook (which someone else mentions) is less a "fantascized historical earth" and more a crossworlds fantasy game with the alternate world being geographically like Earth and adopting many RL languages and cultures, but with lots of its own convetions. If the level of deviation from the authentic in Nyambe turn you off, you probably won't like it either, I'm guessing. (I like it, though! And the demihumans in Nyambe turn me off.)I think Monkeygod also had an adventure or two set in the Balkans or ancient Russia.P.S. Alzirus, HTML no workey in sigs. Try some UBB code...</blockquote>
