No, Creon does not die in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, the play ends with Theban King Creon being led away from his people and into the Theban royal palace recesses. Creon is sputtering about his punishment. He is told that there are more pressing matters to attend to at this moment than that.
