Ghettos in the sense of districts where Jews were required to reside by law date from the Middle Ages. The Lateran Council of 1215 introduced a number of anti-Jewish measures and recommendations. Compulsory residence in ghettos was one of the latter.
Obviously, minorities have often tended to live in the same district, and this goes back much further, but it is not the same thing as being required by law to live in a specificied district.
