Once upon a time there lived a very famous
king, named the King of Crete. He had a monster
which was half bull and half man.
He ordered Daedalus, a craftsman from
Athens, to build a wax in order to house the
monster. When Daedalus finished his work, he
wanted to leave Crete. But the King would not let
him go.
Daedalus escape through the air by using
wings fixed to his body with wax. He also made
wings for his son, Icarus and made him fly behind
himself.
But the son was so glad and excited that he
soon went too high. As he flew nearer to the sun, it
got warmer and warmer until at last the wax melted
and his body fell down into the sea near Troy.
The sea is now called the Icarian Sea.
