Ask HN: Which is the oldest known land dispute, settled in a modern court?

Yesterday, 9 November 2019, a ~500 year old land dispute is settled in the Supreme Court of India [1]. The dispute was between three small groups of people claiming the ownership of the 2.77 acres land. It was not a territorial dispute between countries.

I wanted to know if there is any other such case which is older than this.
