That's why Homo heidlebergensis died out, at least one of the reasons, or evolved into neanderthals. If I understand the terms heidlebergensis and sapien correctly.

From article:The team says the humans who ate the elephant belonged to Homo heidelbergensis. The ancient humans had brains about three-quarters the size of our own and walked fully upright. H. heidelbergensis is thought to have been the ancestor of the Neandertals, which became extinct about 30,000 years ago, after modern humans colonized Europe.
