Stranger In A New Land"With a brain half the size of a modern one and a brow reminiscent of Homo habilis, this hominid is one of the most primitive members of our genus on record. Paleoartist John Gurche reconstructed this 1.75-million-year-old explorer from a nearly complete teenage H. erectus skull and associated mandible found in Dmanisi in the Republic of Georgia. The background figures derive from two partial crania recovered at the site."

Does that include “native muricans”? (Facetious question?)

No modern humans in Germany 300,000 years ago.
Only Neanderthals and possibly one or two other pre-Homo Sapiens.
Homo heidelbergensis, possibly? Anyone know if there are Homo Erectus fossils in Germany or Europe?
Speaking personally, I would not be thrilled about to trying to kill a wild bear with pointed sticks and sharp edged stones!

Perhaps the smaller craniums of these early characters had something to do with that.
