of Crete in order to imprison the Minotaur. Minos imprisoned Daedalus and Icarus as well, though. However, being a craftsman, Daedalus constructed two pairs of wings from wax and feathers. When Icarus donned the wings and flew away from his prison, he flew too close to the sun – causing his wax wings to melt and him to fall to his death into the ocean.
