No, Polyneices is not a swineherd in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Polyneices is a Theban prince. He is supposed to be king by alternating years of rule with his twin brother Eteocles. But Eteocles refuses to honor Polyneices' legitimate claims. Polyneices turns for help to Argos, into whose house he marries.
