Is ownership of land established by placing stones or markers on its corners?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. If the people of a town agree that reviving dead land is done by something other than what was mentioned, such as placing stones or markers on its corners, does that establish ownership of it?

Answer:
No, this only establishes exclusive use, not ownership. Yes.
