It is the sentry that catches Antigone burying her brother and brings her in front of Creon in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, Theban King Creon issues an edict of non-burial of the disloyal Theban dead. He has sentries posted to make sure that the exposed bodies remain unburied. His niece Princess Antigone is caught burying and anointing her brother Polyneices in direct disobedience of the edict, for which the punishment is death.
