Ablative case and its counterparts

In Latin we have the ablative case. We often use it as ablativus instrumentalis or ablativus loci. But in Slavonic languages we have two corresponding cases: instrumental and locative.

What was first: did the instrumental and locative merge into one case in Latin, or did the Slavonic language invent the separate cases?
