In Greek mythology, Daealus (Latin, also Hellenized Latin Daedalos, Greek Daidalos (Δαίδαλος) meaning "cunning worker", and Etruscan Taitle) was a most skillful artificer, or craftsman, so skillful that he was said to have invented images. Daedalus had two sons: Icarus and Iapyx. He is first mentioned by Homer as the creator of a wide dancing-ground for Ariadne . Homer refers to Ariadne by her Cretan title, the "Lady of the Labyrinth" . The Labyrinth on Crete in which the Minotaur was kept was also created by the artificer Daedalus. The story of the labyrinth is told where Theseus is challenged to kill the Minotaur, finding his way with the help of Ariadne's thread.
