Daedalus

Daedalus, the demigod, is very clever in many ways. First, he invented the labyrinth to confine the dreaded minotaur. No one else knew what to do except for him. By using his creativity, Daedalus was able to create a place where the minotaur would not be able to escape. This is very clever because he is the first one to ever come up with the labyrinth. Another time Daedalus proved his intelligence was when he and his son, Icarus, got locked in the labyrinth. At that time he made wings so they could fly out of there. By thinking of a way to escape from the labyrinth, Daedalus once again proved that he was smarter than most people. In conclusion, Daedalus the demigod is obviously an intellectual.
