Natural magnets are called "lode stones." The ancient Greeks knew about these, and about magnetism. Making iron bar magnets is a little trickier, but again, the knowledge dates back to antiquity, as compass needles are essentially light weight magnets, and have been used by sailors in navigation for centuries.
