1. Antigone

2. Story of Oedipus, Antigone’s father
Oedipus was the son of Laius and Jocasta, king and queen of Thebes.
Having been childless for some time, Laius consulted the Oracle of Apollo at Delphi. The Oracle prophesied that any son born to Laius would kill him. In an attempt to prevent this prophecy's fulfillment, when Jocasta indeed bore a son, Laius had his ankles pierced and tethered together so that he could not crawl; Jocasta then gave the boy to a servant to abandon on the nearby mountain.
However, rather than leave the child to die of exposure, as Laius intended, the servant passed the baby on to a shepherd from Corinth and who then gave the child to another shepherd and he eventually was given to the king of Corinth, Polybus, and his queen who raised him.

3. After many years, Oedipus was told by a drunk that Polybus was not his father. Oedipus confronted his parents with the news, but they denied this.
Oedipus went to the same oracle in Delphi that his birth parents had consulted. The oracle informed him he was destined to murder his father and marry his mother.
In an attempt to avoid such a fate, he decided to not return home to Corinth, but to travel to Thebes, as it was near Delphi.

4. On the way to Thebes, Oedipus came to a crossroads at Davlia
On the way to Thebes, Oedipus came to a crossroads at Davlia. He got into an argument with a man about whose right it was to go first at the crossroad and ended up killing the other man.

5. Continuing his journey to Thebes, Oedipus encountered a Sphinx, who would stop all travelers to Thebes and ask them a riddle. If the travelers were unable to answer her correctly, they would be killed and eaten; if they were successful, they would be free to continue on their journey. The riddle was: "What walks on four feet in the morning, two in the afternoon and three at night?". Oedipus answered: "Man: as an infant, he crawls on all fours; as an adult, he walks on two legs and; in old age, he uses a 'walking' stick". Oedipus was the first to answer the riddle correctly and, having heard Oedipus' answer, the Sphinx allowed him to carry on forward.

6. Queen Jocasta's brother, Creon, had announced that any man who could rid the city of the Sphinx would be made king of Thebes, and given the recently widowed Queen Jocasta's hand in marriage. This marriage of Oedipus to Jocasta fulfilled the rest of the prophecy. 

8. After putting out his own eyes, Oedipus wandered from Thebes and around Greece, finally being taken in by the king of Athens. He died there.
