Answer:

By magnetic compass.

Explanation:

In Early time people use magnets to find direction because Magnets have a directive property of magnet.

You can prove it by the following activity:-

Take a piece of thread. Tie it with a bar magnet (the magnet in the shape of 'I'). Hold the thread in your hand and suspend it in air. Hold the thread as loose as possible but don't leave the thread. After a while, you will notice that one end of the magnet is pointing in North direction and other end pointing in South direction.

This property of magnet is known as Directive property of magnet...

And by this fact Early people made a device called magnetic compass for their navigation.

Magnetic Compass : In this device a small bar magnet is attached freely suspend and North, south, east, west is written around the magnet. So as magnet rotate it will rest at North-South direction. And hence, the user will get know which is North, South, East and west.

So this is how Early time people use magnets to navigate... They are still used by Armies, Ship drivers, etc.

Hope it is helpful to you.
