Well the oldest one i know of is the Magna Carta written in Latin in 1215 AD establishing some of the earliest guidelines for the monarchy in Britain... There could be earlier ones because believe it or not England isn't the oldest, that would be Denmark... you might try researching that but as far is a know they were all just vikings...

Added: It may depend on what the definition of a "legal" document is. Many scrolls dating back to biblical times have been discovered or unearthed. Whether you believe that some of these contained "legal" writings (i.e.: laws), or not, can be a matter of opinion.
