That her uncle orders the body to be exposed again after the first burial attempt is the reason why Antigone buries her brother twice in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, Theban King Creon anticipates violations of his unpopular edict of non-burial of the disloyal Theban dead. He has guards patrol the areas where the bodies of the unburied dead lie. The guards locate the partially buried body of Polyneices, Princess Antigone's brother, and re-expose him. Antigone returns to check up on her work, reburies him and is captured to be brought in for questioning and sentencing.
