Conducted round an ancient city and tempted (5)
I believe the answer is:
lured
'tempted' is the definition.
('lure' can be a synonym of 'tempt')
'conducted round an ancient city' is the wordplay.
'conducted' becomes 'led' ('lead' can be a synonym of 'conduct').
'round' indicates putting letters inside.
'an ancient city' becomes 'ur' (ancient Sumerian city state).
'led' going around 'ur' is 'LURED'.
'and' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for lured that I've seen before include "was enticing" , "Attracted" , "Tempted or enticed" , "Seduced" .)
