Theban King Creon thought that Eteocles should be buried, as a loyal defender of Thebes against the Argive attack. But the King thought that Eteocles' brother Polyneices shouldn't be given the same respect. Creon's rationale was the traitorous support of the Theban Polyneices to the enemies from Argos.

What does Creon think about Antigone's brothers in 'Antigone'?
That one is worthless and the other is worthwhile is what Creon thinks about Antigone's brothers in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon expresses different feelings towards his twin nephews. He feels that Eteocles is a worthwhile person who deserves to be buried below ground. But he is so antagonist towards Polyneices that he denies him his god-given rights as a Theban to a below ground burial.
Whom does Creon think buried Polyneices in 'Antigone'?
People who do it for money and are in the pay of his enemies are those whom Creon thinks bury Polyneices in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon says that there is opposition to his recent edict on the non-burial of disloyal Theban dead. His opponents have money with which to corrupt others. In Creon's mind, they therefore are the ones who think up the deed, but they pay people who need money to actually do the deed.
Who does Creon finally listen to?
He listens to Tiresias who told Creon to think of what he has done.
Who does Creon think is responsible?
Creon thinks that the sentry is been resposible for burying the body.
Why do you think Creon seems preoccupied with revolt and strife?
That a civil war between royal nephews Eteocles and Polyneices ends in success at high costs for Thebes, that he's the close relative of the recently disgraced Theban King Oedipus, that he rules as regent for the incorrect heir apparent, and that he supports the wrong but winning side are the reasons why Theban King Creon is preoccupied with revolt and strife in the play 'Antigone'.

What does Creon think that a king should do in 'Antigone'?
That a king needs to rule alone is what Creon thinks that a king should do in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon likes having the royal powers all to himself. He does not think that he needs to seek second opinions on anything. In fact, he believes that it is a sign of weakness to look anywhere but to oneself when ruling Thebes.
Is Creon the father of Teiresias?

Why does Antigone think that Creon issues his decree in 'Antigone'?
That it is a part of the curse on her family is the reason why Antigone thinks that Creon issues his decree in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone discusses with her sister Princess Ismene the divine curse that makes life so miserable for the children of disgraced Theban King Oedipus. She does not mention that her uncle King Creon rules as a usurper of the royal powers of the now deceased twin brothers Eteocles and Polyneices. So a curse may be at work but so is Creon's attempt to consolidate his rule and discredit the true heir's son and supporters.

How do the guards decide who will bring the news to Creon in 'Oedipus Rex'?
It is by drawing lots that the guards decide who will bring news to Creon in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the guards discover Polyneices' body partially buried under a layer of dust. Polyneices is considered a Theban traitor for attacking Thebes in an assertion of his legitimate claims to the Theban throne. The guards know that Theban King Creon will be upset by news of the body being buried and his non-burial edict being broken. They think of drawing lots as the way to choose the bearer of bad news to a hot-tempered royal.
