Daedalus! I hope I spelled that right....
The boy is Icarus, in the myth of Daedalus, who is Icarus' father. So yes, it is a Greek Myth as the Greeks held that Daedalus was originally Athenian (though it is now widely believed he was Minoan/Cretan).
I think it would be myth or legend.
The story of Daedalus and Icarus is a famous Greek myth. The author of this myth is unknown, as it has been passed down through oral tradition for centuries before being recorded in written form.
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.
It's not the myth of JUST Daedalus, it's the myth of Daedalus and Icarus. Icarus was Daedalus' son, and after the master engineer designed the wings, which were held together with wax, he warned his son not to fly to low (as the spray from the water would weigh down the wings) and not to fly too high (as the heat from the sun would melt the wax and the wings would fall apart). Of course, the idiot boy ignored his father, and depending on which myth you find, he either flew too low and fell into the sea, or flew too high and.. fell into the sea.

Disobeying the rules or instructions of someone who knows better can be very dangerous.
