The plural noun "sentries" is more than one sentry or guard. The similar plural noun "centuries" means periods of 100 years.
It is by Creon and then by lots that the sentries are chosen in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon chooses sentries to keep the bodies of the disloyal Theban dead from being buried. The sentries find Polyneices' body partially buried under a dusty layer. Creon is known to take an unlikable message out on the messenger. No one volunteers to inform the king so they cast lots to decide who will carry out the loathsome task.
