dc.description.abstract	Pattern recognition is hard-wired into our brains. Unfortunately, it seems that most civil engineers have forgotten how to apply it to solve complex problems. This article gives some examples of where pattern recognition led to the solution of problems, and the examples date back to biblical times.	en
