Engineering has existed since ancient times as humans devised fundamental inventions such as the wedge, lever, wheel, and pulley.	La ingeniería ha existido desde la antigüedad mientras los humanos creaban los inventos fundamentales como la cuña, la palanca, la rueda, y la polea.
Each of these inventions is essentially consistent with the modern definition of engineering.	Cada uno de estos inventos es fundamentalmente consistente con la definición moderna de la ingeniería.
The term engineering is derived from the word engineer, which itself dates back to 1390, when an engine'er (literally, one who operates an engine) originally referred to "a constructor of military engines."	El término ingeniería se deriva de la palabra ingeniero, la cual a su vez data del año 1390, cuando un "engine'er" (literalmente, uno que opera un "engine" o máquina militar en inglés) se refería a "un constructor de máquinas militares."
In this context, now obsolete, an "engine" referred to a military machine, i.e., a mechanical contraption used in war (for example, a catapult).	En este contexto, ahora obsoleto, un "engine" se refería a una máquina militar, i.e., maquinaria mecánica usada para la guerra (por ejemplo, una catapulta).
Notable examples of the obsolete usage which have survived to the present day are military engineering corps, e.g., the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.	Los "military engineering corps" (literalmente, cuerpos militares de ingeniería en inglés) son ejemplos notables de el uso obsoleto que ha sobrevivido hasta hoy en día. Un ejemplo es "the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers".
The word "engine" itself is of even older origin, ultimately deriving from the Latin ingenium (c. 1250), meaning "innate quality, especially mental power, hence a clever invention."	Así mismo, la palabra "engine" es de todavía más antiguo origen, derivando finalmente del Latín ingenium (c. 1250), que significa "calidad inata, especialmente de poder mental, ergo un invento ingenioso."
Later, as the design of civilian structures such as bridges and buildings matured as a technical discipline, the term civil engineering entered the lexicon as a way to distinguish between those specializing in the construction of such non-military projects and those involved in the older discipline of military engineering.	Posteriormente, mientras el diseño de estructuras civiles como puentes y edificios avanzaba como disciplina técnica, el término ingeniería civil entró en el léxico como modo de distinguir a aquellos que se especializaban en la construcción de proyectos no militares de aquellos involucrados en la disciplina más antigua de la ingeniería militar.
