Who was Antigone?
"In Greek mythology, the daughter of Oedipus and Jocasta, whose story forms the basis of Sophocles' tragedy Antigone. When her father was banished from Thebes she accompanied him into exile in Colonus. Her brothers Eteocles and Polyneices had agreed to reign alternately in Thebes, but Eteocles' refusal to yield the crown led to their killing each other in single combat. Despite the Theban senate's decree prohibiting the burial of Polyneices, Antigone performed the funeral rites for her brother. She was consequently ordered to be buried alive by Creon, ruler of Thebes, and hanged herself."
