Lambskin. They are still available for people who are allergic to latex. "Lambskin" condoms are not actually made of skin. They are made of intestinal lining.
Ancient Egyptians also used lemon rinds as diaphragms. Not only did the rind catch the semen and prevent it from entering the cervix, the citric acid served as a spermicide.

Animal intestines, fish bladders, and wax coated paper or linen. I have two of them from the 1700's and they are like wax paper with a drawstring on the top.

In days of old when Knights were bold and rubber wasn't invented,
They wrapped a sock around their c-o-c-k and babies were prevented.

Fish skins and animal intestines. Where do you think the 'fishy' jokes come from?
No joke.

Sheep bladder and intestines. And oftentimes, they were used more than once.

Have you not heard it in verse?
In days of old when knights were bold
And rubbers not invented,
Men tied their socks around their cocks,
Thus babies were prevented.
