Although Sophocles won second prize with the group of plays that included Oedipus Rex, its date of production is uncertain. The prominence of the Theban Plague (disease) at the play's opening suggests to many scholars a reference to the plague that devastated Athens in 430 BC, and hence a production date shortly thereafter. See, for example, Knox, Bernard (1956). «The Date of the Oedipus Tyrannus of Sophocles». American Journal of Philology. 77 (2): 133–147. JSTOR292475.
