This is a link, and can be see a photo there ( unfortunately is just in Romanian ), with a sword discovered recently somewhere in north east of Carpatians mountains, old as 3500 years ( 1500 BC ), a bronze one who belonged to proto-Dacians, and with a shape and dimenssions not quite different then Gladius type ones.

However, i still believe that in Iron Age the shape of weapons changed to Sica and Falx one, as more specialized weapons, but this design was as well keep it for some swords.
