How does antigone as the archetype of a tragic heroine support the theme that "divine law is higher than mortal law"?

Being the archetype of a tragic heroine, Antigone supports the theme that "divine law is higher than mortal law" as she sacrifices herself for what she believes in.

Explanation:

Antigone is a tragedy written by Sophocles in 442 BC, the plot begins with Antigone burying his dead brother Polyneices after he died in battle, and even after the king's successor Creon commands that Polyneices's body should be left on the field of battle. Antigone makes a decision knowing it will probably cost her own life, but she sacrifices herself because she believes her action was adhering to the law of God, which is, in her opinion, higher than the mortal law. This action makes Antigone a tragic heroine while supporting one of the main themes of the tragedy, which is the conflict between the divine law and the mortal law.
