Additional info/contents	Icarus (also known by his Latinized name Icarus, Greek Íkaros) was the son of Daedalus (Greek: Daidalos; Latin: Daedalus) in Greek mythology. Both were imprisoned by King Minos in the Minotaur's Labyrinth on Crete as punishment for Ariadne's Thread. Since Minos controlled sea travel, Daedalus invented wings for himself and his son. To do this, he attached feathers to a pole with wax. Before takeoff, he warned Icarus not to fly too high or too low, otherwise the moisture of the sea or the heat of the sun would cause him to crash. At first everything went well, but after they had passed Samos and Delos on the left and Lebinthos on the right, Icarus became cocky and climbed so high that the sun melted the wax on his wings, the feathers came off, and he fell into the sea. The desperate Daedalus, who arrived safely in Sicily, named the land Ikaria in memory of his child. There he built a temple to Apollo and hung his wings in it as a sacrifice to the god. The Icarus myth is generally interpreted as meaning that the fall and death of the arrogant is the punishment of the gods for his brazen grab for the sun. According to Ovid (see below), the gods let Icarus die in revenge because Daedalus murdered his nephew and student Perdix out of envy of his skills.
