Sentence her to death is what Creon does to Antigone in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).

Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone deliberately breaks a royal edict recently issued by King Creon, her uncle and intended father-in-law. Creon tends to have a negative attitude towards women in general and towards Antigone in particular. Nevertheless, Antigone does nothing to try to get Creon to pardon her or give her a sentence other than death.

That she is a royal orphan as well as Creon's future daughter-in-law and ward are reasons why Antigone dwells with Creon in his household in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone is the orphaned daughter of disgraced Theban monarchs Oedipus and Jocasta. Creon is Jocasta's brother and therefore becomes Antigone's guardian. Prince Haemon, Creon's son, is Antigone's first cousin and husband-to-be.
