The closest I can think to that is Pastwatch: The Redemption of Christopher Columbus, but only if you are crossing it with something else in your memory (something I do all the time.)
It involves the invention of a past viewing device that eventually leads to a time travel device. It doesn't have them go back and forth, because after changing history they future will not exist (only those who traveled still exist from that alternate future), but one of the things that decided them on traveling was discovering that a PREVIOUS future had already done this once before, but screwed it up, to some degree. So there is a bit of 'Ok.. lets try this again, since our alternates in some other future failed...'
Also, when they travel back, and deal with Central Americans (Incas or Mayas, I think, but it's been a while) at least one of them engages in a somewhat horric act of religious self mutilation..
Don't THINK it's your story.. but it has elements...
