Does Dedalus drop us a clue??

Dedalus being the "Daedalus" from Greek mythology, who designed wings for his son and himself in order to escape from imprisonment, or the literary creation -James Joyce's "Stephen Dedalus" - the artist?
Hmm..Somebody's finally unreavelling the clue.I meant Icharus's father but can equally identify it with our Ulysses chap.
The cretan masterpiece created by dedalus was so complex and amazing size created the illusion of a maze.So one wondered as to how "Dedalus" built it himself without getting lost in it and Dedalus used a "Thread" (so to speak) to help him keep track of position and get back.This "Thread" is called a "Clue".
Now coming to our Joyce's famous creation Leopold Bloom (Ulysses) always leaves fragmentary clues and open to interpretation.I havent finished the book BTW.
Neither have I ;-) I've only read "The Portrait of an Artist as a Young Man"...
Interesting...made my mind jog a bit...merci!
