Not to bury the disloyal Theban dead is what Creon decides and what upsets Antigone in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, Theban King Creon decides to deny to perceived Theban traitors their god-given rights to below ground burials. But he honors those same god-given rights for perceived Theban loyalists. He therefore refuses to allow the burial of Princess Antigone's brother Polyneices, whom he considers a traitor for fighting for his legitimate claim to the Theban throne.
