Yes, Antigone accompanies Oedipus in exile after "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).

Specifically, the audience does not know whether or not Oedipus is punished with execution or exile at the play's end. But from other sources, such as "Oedipus at Colonus" by the same ancient Greek dramatist, the audience learns that Oedipus is punished with exile and that the exile is shared with his elder daughter, Princess Antigone. According to other sources, Oedipus and Antigone also are accompanied by the disgraced king's younger daughter Ismene.
