Answer:

Creon and Antigone disagreed on the issue of Antigone's brothers' burial ceremony.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Creon, the uncle of Antigone and her brothers, Eteocles and Polyneices wanted to bury Eteocles with honor while prohibited anyone from giving a proper burial to Polyneices because he was against him during the war.
  • This resolution by Creon met with great resentment by Antigone who wanted to bury both her brothers with honor. The lines 570-77 are about how Haimon is trying to negotiate with his father, Creon, to act rationally and reasonably regarding Antigone's life.
