Who gives Creon the news that polyneices is buried?
Sentry
What news does the sentry bring Who does Creon think is responsible?
The sentry brings news that the body of Polyneices has had dust spread over it so that it may pass safely through to the underworld. Creon is overtaken with rage and tells the messenger that if he doesn't find who did this than he would be killed.
What news does the sentry bring on his first visit to Creon in 'Antigone'?
That Polyneices' body is buried and that the perpetrator is long gone is the news that the sentry brings on his first visit to Creon in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon denies to his perceived enemies their god-given rights as Thebans to below ground burials. He enforces his prohibition by a royal edict. He has guards posted immediately after making the edict public. But a sentry lets Creon know that his edict already is violated and that Creon's disgraced nephew Polyneices' body already is covered with a dusty layer that constitutes a partial burial.
What does Creon believe the sentry has done?
Creon thinks the Sentry has buried the body of Polynices.
Why does the sentry bring Antigone to Creon?
To save himself from the king's threat to kill him if he does not find the culprit.

Why is the sentry afraid to tell Creon about Polyneices' burial in 'Antigone'?
It is fear of false blame and undeserved punishment that makes the sentry afraid to tell Creon about Polyneices' burial in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the sentry is acquainted with Theban King Creon's narrow sense of right and wrong. He knows that Creon considers breaking his law wrong and punishing the offender right. He also knows that Creon may punish the bearer of bad news if there is no other person in sight to blame.
