In the play Oedipus, Antigone is the child born of Oedipus and his mother Jocasta. Outside of the city gates, Antigone tells her sister that Eteocles will be buried with full honors as ordered by Creon.
Because the guards saw her burying the body and Creon told the sentry to figure out who had buried the body and defied his orders or the sentry would be the one serving the death penalty.
Creon. He ordered her death, but Antigone refused to be buried alive, and therefore killed herself by hanging.
No one is specified as being buried with Antigone in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the covered body of Theban Prince Haemon is brought on a bier to the Theban royal palace. This is just after Haemon kills himself after finding his beloved Princess Antigone hanging dead from her own halter and after failing to kill his father, King Creon. No mention is made as to the disposition of Antigone's body.
Whether or not to bury in terms of Antigone and whether or not to arrest her in terms of the guards are the conflicts in the scene in which Antigone finds her brother not buried in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.D. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone must decide whether or not to rebury the body of her brother Polyneices. The guards must decide whether or not to let Antigone get away with burying the body. Then they must decide whether or not to capture her or let her go and brave King Creon's wrath.
