ancient (vested) rights Explanation: I'm unsure that the qualifier of vested is even needed in the self-contained term of ancient rights - with which 'ancient rites', though closely linked, ought not to be confused. Example sentence(s):

historically acquired rights Explanation: Draft article 18 (“Protection in times of armed conflict”) should include a reference to the applicable rules and principles relating to armed conflict, non-international conflicts and territories under occupation, and should state that transboundary aquifers should not be used in violation of those principles and rules. In view of the principle of ***historically acquired rights***, the law of shared aquifers should not apply to projects already under way. https://undocs.org/pdf?symbol=en/A/C.6/71/SR.18 |

grandfather rights Explanation: The concept of grandfather rights factor in history or long time. So it would be pleonastic to say 'historical/ancient, grandfather rights'. A grandfather clause (or grandfather policy or grandfathering) is a provision in which an old rule continues to apply to some existing situations while a new rule will apply to all future cases. Those exempt from the new rule are said to have grandfather rights or acquired rights, or to have been grandfathered in. |
