Sisyphus was a Greek king who was notorious for his 'Iron Fist'ed Rule' And was sent to hades and forced to push a boulder up a hill, only for it to roll back down to the bottom just as he reached the top for all eternity. This can be related to animal farm where the animals are forced to roll a boulder to drop it off the edge to try and break it. The difference here is that it is the animals who are punished, yet it is the pigs who are ruling with an 'Iron fist'. The Fact that they watch the windmill fall twice could also be contrasting the pain of Sisyphus having to watch his boulder roll down the hill, and the fact that the windmill is never used for what they want shows there labour is fruitless.
