From the guard of the sword it has a similar shape and size to a Pompeii gladius which, was in use at the time. However, given the length it could be something like a spatha.
Some supposed spatha lockets are the same size as Pompeii gladii lockets. (If I recall correctly from some scaled drawing I use to have).
I have to agree with Henk thought that its origins are uncertain.
