# Suppliant Women presents Athens as burier of the Seven’s dead

Date: 423

## The fact

Euripides’ Suppliant Women shows Theseus securing burial for the Seven against Thebes. The dated civic play is not Trojan Women and not Medea. [Euripides](/people/euripides)’s documented role is: He produced the Suppliants, a play of Theseus forcing burial of the Argive dead. The demos watched a civic self-image; later Loeb is access; unique year is conventional. Do not twin this with Trojan Women. A burial-rights play is not a captive-women play. Later editors, printers, and excavators remain named where they appear. Euripides's documented role is: He produced the Suppliants, a play of Theseus forcing burial of the Argive dead. The demos watched a civic self-image; later Loeb is access; unique year is conventional.

## Context

Unnamed clerks, soldiers, printers, or later editors may appear without becoming this instrument. The instrument stays Suppliant Women presents Athens as burier of the Seven’s dead. The setting of Suppliant Women presents Athens as burier of the Seven’s dead is the public file around -0423-01-01. Shared offices, unnamed crews, printers, or later editors may appear without becoming this instrument. Driver [democratic-resilience](/drivers/democratic-resilience) is attached because the significance names a mechanism from this act, not because a standing list needed coverage.

Confidence is stated on the impact path, not hidden in adjectives. Do not twin this with Trojan Women. A burial-rights play is not a captive-women play. Mixed effects of Suppliant Women presents Athens as burier of the Seven’s dead are separate paths.
