What is an Antecedent?
A noun that replaces another noun. The main action of the sentence - what the noun is doing or being. The main person, place, thing, or idea of the sentence - who/what is doing or being something. The noun that is being replaced by the pronoun - always comes before the pronoun is used.

Answer:
In grammar, an antecedent is an expression that gives its meaning to a proform. A proform takes its meaning from its antecedent; e.g., "John arrived late because traffic held him up." The pronoun him refers to and takes its meaning from John, so John is the antecedent of him.
