For breaking his law Antigone is punished by her uncle in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon issues an edict by which Princess Antigone's brother Eteocles is buried as a Theban loyalist but by which her brother Polyneices's corpse is left above ground and exposed to ravaging weather and scrounging wildlife.
