Why did Sophocles write 'Antigone'?

No one knows why Sophocles wrote "Antigone."Specifically, only seven of the 120+ plays written by the ancient Greek dramatist (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.) survive. There is no surviving commentary by the author on any of his works and neither is there a surviving body of letters, biographies or autobiographies. But one can guesstimate that Sophocles felt a personal commitment since he was born in Colonus, the death place of Theban Princess Antigone's father, King Oedipus. Additionally, tragedy in ancient Greek royal houses was a hot topic for the cultivated, theater-going Athenian audience for which the competitive, cultured Sophocles wrote.
