A Family of Inventors: The Tape Recorder Trilogy – S1E09

(~1650 BCE · Crete, the Aegean, and the Eastern Mediterranean) 

The Narrator tells of the early days of his friendship with Daedalus and his sons Icarus and Iapyx, who are not as the myths remember them. 

Based on Chapter 9 of Beginning by Geoff Micks.
