Best Answer

That the body of Polyneices is buried is the news that the guard brings in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.E.C.).

Specifically, Theban King Creon issues an edict that denies to certain Thebans god-given rights to below-ground burials and proper funeral rites. He knows the edict to be unpopular and therefore posts guards to make sure that no Theban whom he considers disloyal will be buried. It therefore upsets him to hear about the civil disobedience.
