Who is the mother and the father of this Daedalus?

Question

Who is the mother and father of Daedalus the Greek Myth.

I need your source too.

Answer 1

Daedalus's parents are not named--his sons, Icarus and Iapyx, and his nephew, Perdix, are the only relatives named in the original Greek myth. The Romans gave him a parentage, however (grandson of the king Erechtheus, etc.) and made him Athenian rather than Cretan.

Try Edith Hamilton's book on mythology.

Answer 2

Not true:

The Athenian Daedalus, son of Metion (father) and the grandson of Erechtheus (grandfather), was a famous architect, inventor, and craftsman.

Answer 3

Well the pair is Daedalus and Icarus.

I think Icarus is the son of Daedalus. But the mother is never mentioned.

Daedalus' parents aren't mentiond either
