The most familiar literary telling explaining Daedalus ' wings is a late one, that of Ovid: in his Metamorphoses ( VIII: 183-235 ) Daedalus was shut up in a tower to prevent his knowledge of his Labyrinth from spreading to the public.

In the Percy Jackson & the Olympians book The Battle of the Labyrinth, Daedalus is the enigmatic Quintus ( Latin which means 5 or fifth ), and has preserved himself since antiquity by placing his animus, his life force, into an automaton, an idea pioneered by his nephew Perdix.

Labyrinth is a word of pre-Greek ( Minoan ) origin absorbed by Classical Greek and is perhaps related to the Lydian labrys (" double-edged axe ", a symbol of royal power, which fits with the theory that the labyrinth was originally the royal Minoan palace on Crete and meant " palace of the double-axe "), with-inthos meaning " place " ( as in Corinth ).

The word labyrinthos ( Mycenaean daburinthos < ref > da-pu < sub > 2 </ sub >- ri-to-yo po-ti-ni-ja ( KN Gg 702 ), daburinthoyo potnia meaning " mistress or lady of the Labyrinth ".</ ref >) may possibly show the same equivocation between initial d-and l-as is found in the variation of the early Hittite royal name Tabarna / Labarna ( where written t-may represent phonetic d -).

Oxford University geographer Nicholas Howarth believes that ' Evans ’ s hypothesis that the palace of Knossos is also the Labyrinth must be treated skeptically.
