That she agrees with the gods that once a Thebanalways a Theban is why Antigone does not view herself as a traitor in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone believes in her city, her family and her gods. She therefore does not fixate on what side a Theban is on in the first civil war over the Theban royal succession. She is just glad that the conflict is over and wants both the disloyal and loyal Theban dead to have their god-given rights as Thebans respected for below ground burials. But that is not the way that her vindictive uncle, King Creon, sees things.
