1st Answer:
No. Locks of that type hadn't been invented. A bar was put across the door to hold it in place.
2nd Answer:
Yes. The oldest locks predate history. Ancient Egyptians had locks. The key was invented by Theodore of Samos in the 6th century BC, according to Wikipedia (link below, but there is not much there beyond what is here). There were locks before the middle Ages and locks during the middle ages. Some remain on the doors of cathedrals and abbeys, and the keys are common in museums.
