Eurydice of Thebes is the Queen of Thebes and Creonâs wife. She appears towards the end and only to hear confirmation of her son Haemonâs death. In her grief, she commits suicide, cursing Creon whom she blames for her sonâs death. Haemon is the son of Creon and Eurydice, betrothed to Antigone.n Antigone, the hubris of Creon is revealed. Creon's decree to leave Polyneices unburied in itself makes a bold statement about what it means to be a citizen, and what constitutes abdication of citizenship. It was the firmly kept custom of the Greeks that each city was responsible for the burial of its citizens.
