Answer: The character who reports that Polyneices has been buried is A) Guard.
Explanation: In Sophocles' <em>Antigone, </em><u>the Guard is the first to inform Creon that someone has buried Polyneices and disobeyed the ruler's orders</u>. However, in that precise moment, Creon does not know that the person that has gone against his authority is his son's fiancée and Polyneices' sister, Antigone. After taking Antigone to Creon,<u> the Guard expresses that he feels pain for denouncing Antigone</u>, whom he considers a friend. Moreover, <u>he does not condemn Antigone for her actions.</u>
