As cursive writing was only invented in the 9 th Century BCE, our records are limited for earlier on. We have brief inscriptions in Egypt and Mesopotamia from the second and third millennia BCE, but nothing earlier, though the archaeological evidence and our knowledge of the way human beings act tell us that there were endless battles in the previous millennia. So the answer to the question has to be 'We don't know'.
Asking questions about first, last, biggest, smallest etc is rather unproductive as someone can usually think of something earlier, later etc etc. It is better to concentrate on what happened and why.

In earlier times we had the Persian Wars 499-449 BCE.
