Where was icarus from?
According the the surviving versions of the myth, Icarus was the son of Daedalus, but seems to have been too young to have been from Athens like his father. No mother is ever mentioned, which implies that she wasn't anyone of importance. Still, he would have been from Knossos on Crete. Earlier versions of Daedalus' story omit Icarus altogether, because in them, Daedalus was Minoan, not Greek, and thus did not need to escape from Crete.
What were some of Minos reasons for waiting to keep Daedalus on Crete?
Well there are some versions of the myth in which Daedalus is actually a Cretan. It wasn't until after the fall of Crete that the Hellenes (mainland Greeks) started making Daedalus an Athenian. In the non-Hellenistic versions of the Icarus myth, it's said that Minos was keeping Daedalus in a tower so that he wouldn't share the secret of the Labyrinth with the world. In this version, Daedalus and his son were kept in a tower. In later versions of the Icarus myth, it's stated that Minos imprisoned Daedalus because he helped Theseus to defeat the Minotaur by giving Ariadne the ball of string and giving him advice on how to navigate the maze. In this version, Daedalus and Icarus were kept in the Labyrinth.
