In Greek mythology, Daedalus was a skillful architect and artist, was seen as a symbol of wisdom and power. He is the father of Icarus, the uncle of Perdix, also the father of Iapyx, although this is unclear, he invented and built the Labyrinth for King Minos of Crete, but shortly after finishing it King Minos had Daedalus imprisoned within the labyrinth. He and his son Icarus devised a plan to escape by using wings made of wax that Daedalus had invented, they escaped. The wax melted and Icarus fell to his death; this left Daedalus heartbroken. Daedalus's parentage was supplied as a addition, providing him with a father in Metion, Eupalamus, or Palamaon, a mother, Iphinoe, or Phrasmede. Daedalus had two sons: Iapyx, along with a nephew either Talos or Perdix. Athenians transferred Cretan Daedalus to make him Athenian-born, the grandson of the ancient king Erechtheus, claiming that Daedalus fled to Crete after killing his nephew Talos. Over time, other stories were told of Daedalus. Daedalus is first mentioned by Homer as the creator of a wide dancing-ground for Ariadne.

He created the Labyrinth on Crete, in which the Minotaur was kept. In the story of the labyrinth as told by the Hellenes, the Athenian hero Theseus is challenged to kill the Minotaur, finding his way with the help of Ariadne's thread. Daedalus' appearance in Homer is in an extended metaphor, "plainly not Homer's invention", Robin Lane Fox observes: "He is a point of comparison and so he belongs in stories which Homer's audience recognized." In Bronze Age Crete, an inscription da-da-re-jo-de has been read as referring to a place at Knossos, a place of worship. In Homer's language, daidala refers to finely crafted objects, they are objects of armor, but fine bowls and furnishings are daidala, on one occasion so are the "bronze-working" of "clasps, twisted brooches and necklaces" made by Hephaestus while cared for in secret by the goddesses of the sea. Ignoring Homer writers envisaged the Labyrinth as an edifice rather than a single dancing path to the center and out again, gave it numberless winding passages and turns that opened into one another, seeming to have neither beginning nor end.

Ovid, in his Metamorphoses, suggests that Daedalus constructed the Labyrinth so cunningly that he himself could escape it after he built it. Daedalus built the labyrinth for King Minos; the story is told that Poseidon had given a white bull to Minos so that he might use it as a sacrifice. Instead, Minos kept it for himself. For Pasiphaë, as Greek mythologers interpreted it, Daedalus built a wooden cow so she could mate with the bull, for the Greeks imagined the Minoan bull of the sun to be an actual, earthly bull, the slaying of which required a heroic effort by Theseus; the most familiar literary telling explaining Daedalus' wings is a late one, that of Ovid: in his Metamorphoses Daedalus was shut up in a tower to prevent the knowledge of his Labyrinth from spreading to the public. He could not leave Crete by sea, as the king kept a strict watch on all vessels, permitting none to sail without being searched. Since Minos controlled the land and sea routes, Daedalus set to work to fabricate wings for himself and his young son Icarus.

He tied feathers together, from smallest to largest so as to form an increasing surface. He secured the feathers at their midpoints with string and at their bases with wax, gave the whole a gentle curvature like the wings of a bird; when the work was done, the artist, waving his wings, found himself buoyed upward and hung suspended, poising himself on the beaten air. He next equipped his son in the same manner, taught him how to fly; when both were prepared for flight, Daedalus warned Icarus not to fly too high, because the heat of the sun would melt the wax, nor too low, because the sea foam would soak the feathers. They had passed Samos and Lebynthos by the time the boy, forgetting himself, began to soar upward toward the sun; the blazing sun softened the wax that held the feathers together and they came off. Icarus fell in the sea and drowned, his father cried, bitterly lamenting his own arts, called the island near the place where Icarus fell into the ocean Icaria in memory of his child. Some time the goddess Athena visited Daedalus and gave him wings, telling him to fly like a god.

An early image of winged Daedalus appears on an Etruscan jug of ca 630 BC found at Cerveteri, where a winged figure captioned Taitale appears on one side of the vessel, paired on the other side, with Metaia, Medea: "its linking of these two mythical figures is unparalleled," Robin Lane Fox observes: "The link was based on their wondrous, miraculous art. Magically, Daedalus could fly, magically Medea was able to rejuvenate the old"; the image of Daedalus demonstrates that he was well known in the West. Further to the west Daedalus arrived safely in Sicily, in the care of King Cocalus of Kamikos on the island's south coast. In an invention of Virgil, Daedalus flies to Cumae and founds his temple there, rather than in Sicily.
