Pompeij is followed by Spatha type blades around 170 AD. Newstead spatha stays around till 200 AD. Evolution seems to be gradual, the Pompeij classic "out-lived" one of its predecesors and lasted almost as long as the other. You should also look at quantities found, not just blade typology. Pompeij was the predominant blade and can be regarded as THE galdius till the fasing out of the gladius altogether.
