Yes, Creon has a recognition scene in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, a recognition scene allows a character to face up to accidents, commissions, mistakes and omissions. It is foreshadowed by Theban King Creon's relenting on the non-burial of his nephew Polyneices and the capital punishment of his niece, Princess Antigone. It actually takes place when Creon acknowledges how everything that makes his life worth meaning is lost through his own stubbornness, poor choices and offensive acts.
