Antigone's brothers died in a fight over the throne.

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

When evaluating the statement, we consider what the play or myth says about the two brothers and the cause of their deaths.
Option 1: True. The standard account is that Polyneices and Eteocles die in a battle for control of Thebes, fighting each other over who should rule. Their deaths occur as a result of the brothers’ feud and the ensuing war, which is central to the tragedy and to Antigone’s context.
Option 2: False. This would be incorrect because the commonly accepted narrative does not place their deaths elsewhere or resulting from unrelated causes; the decisive events are the brothers’ mutual combat over the throne, not other kinds of demise or accidental endings.
In summary, the claim aligns with the established story: the brothers died in a fight over the throne, making the statement true, while any suggestion of a different cause or outcome contradicts the canonical account.
