Antigone's crime is violation of a manmade decree that's enacted and enforced by her uncle, Theban King Creon. That violation is prompted by Antigone's respect for the higher moral authority of the gods. For her obedience to the royal decree would put her in direct opposition to god-given procedures for the preparation of the dead for their passage into the realms of the underworld god. Antigone committed the crime of burying her brother Polyneices. According to god-given justice and traditions, this wasn't a crime. But according to the decree of her uncle, Theban King Creon, the deed was forbidden and punishable by death.
