The first definition of an area called Germania was made by Julius Caesar in his book "Bellum Gallicum" in 51 B.C (east of Gallia on the right shore of river Rhine). Germanic tribes were known before e.g. to the Greek, and the first usage of the word Germani dates back to the roman general Marcus Claudius Marcellus in 222 B.C. Relics like the Nebra Skydisk indicate that there could have been cultural exchange and trade more than 1500 years earlier.
