The literary device you are referring to is "anachronism." An anachronism is something that is out of its proper time period or historical setting, often used to create a deliberate contrast or to highlight themes in a work.
Sophocles included many literary devices that helped tell the story. The most used literary device in the play is dramatic irony. Another literary device used by Sophocles is characterization. In Oedipus the King, Sophocles used characterization to portray Oedipus as the tragic hero. A third literary device used in the play is flashback, which is where the story switches from the present to an event that occurred in the past.
