well, Harry Turtledove has plenty of Romano-Byzantine fantasy... his series of novels set in Videssos, an alternate-world Byzantium. And an early imperial legion shows up in one set. Plus he has some true historical fiction following the crew of a Greek freighter from Rhodes in the Hellenistic period, starting with Over the Wine-Dark Sea...
