The gates of Thebes are closed as a protective measure against the plague that has struck the city. In Sophocles' play "Oedipus Rex," the citizens are desperate to prevent the spread of the disease, which has brought suffering and misfortune. The closure symbolizes the city’s isolation and the urgency to find a solution to the crisis, as well as the overarching theme of fate and the struggle against it.
Thebes is the city that has seven gates in a yawning ring in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the interior of the city of Thebes can be accessed by seven gates. Each of the gates directs incoming and outgoing Thebans through a different entrance. But all paths lead the traveller to the city's center.

The seven gates of Thebes, as described in ancient Greek mythology, are named after the mythical figures associated with them. They are: the Gate of the Sphinx, the Gate of Ismene, the Gate of the Seven, the Gate of the Dragon, the Gate of the Cadmeia, the Gate of the Theban Wall, and the Gate of the Amonians. Each gate played a significant role in various myths and stories, particularly in the tale of Oedipus and the conflict of the Seven Against Thebes.
The seven main entrances to the city are what the seven gates are in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Thebes is one of the most famous cities in ancient Greece. The impressive design and number of Thebes' gates reflects the city's sheer volume of incoming and outgoing traffic. They also testify to the city's regional importance as a cultural and politico-economic center.
