Daedalus (Greek: Δαίδαλος, Daidalos) was a skillful craftsman and artist in Greek mythology, known for his ingenuity and creativity. He is often credited with the invention of the labyrinth, a complex maze designed to house the Minotaur, a mythical creature that was part man and part bull. Daedalus is also famous for crafting wings made of feathers and wax, which he and his son Icarus used in an attempt to escape from the island of Crete. The name "Daedalus" translates to דידלוס in Hebrew, Dédalo in Spanish, Dédale in French, and Dedalo in Italian. His mythological significance lies in his role as a symbol of human ingenuity and the consequences of overreaching ambition, as exemplified by the tragic flight of Icarus.

Daedalus
Greek mythological figure
In Greek mythology, Daedalus was a skillful architect and craftsman, seen as a symbol of wisdom, knowledge and power. He is the father of Icarus, the uncle of Perdix, and possibly also the father of Iapyx. Among his most famous creations are the wooden cow for Pasiphaë, the Labyrinth for King Minos of Crete which imprisoned the Minotaur, and wings that he and his son Icarus used to attempt to escape Crete. It was during this escape that Icarus did not heed his father's warnings and flew too close to the sun; the wax holding his wings together melted and Icarus fell to his death.
