The Dutch Tiphys

...[he] taught [men] to feed on rejected fruits and, by the command of Ceres The Roman goddess of agriculture (the Greek Demeter)., established the art of agriculture.

The fertile goddess harnessed a pair of snakes
To her chariots, and reined in their mouths with bits:
And was carried through the air between heaven and earth.
And she sent her light chariot to the Tritonian citadel
To Triptolemus A mythological hero chosen by Ceres to spread the knowledge of grain-growing to the world., and commanded him to scatter the seeds given
Partly in the wild earth, and partly in land long recultivated.
Now the youth had been carried high over Europe and the land of Asia,
And he turned toward the Scythian shores.
A passage from Ovid’s Metamorphoses (5.642–649), describing Triptolemus’s journey to spread agriculture using a chariot pulled by dragons/snakes.

And what follows. Yet Philochorus An Athenian historian (c. 340–261 BCE) who specialized in the local history and myths of Athens. is the authority who states that Triptolemus, arriving at maritime cities in a "long ship," distributed the grain. The ship was thought to be a winged serpent original Greek: πτερωτὸν ὄφιν (pteroton ophin) because it reflected this appearance in its shape. original: Triptolemum longa navi ad civitates maritimas appulsum frumentum distribuisse. navem autem visam esse anguem alatum, quia hanc specieim utcunque sua figura referret. I believe that the beaks original: rostra of ships expressed the likeness of the beaks or snouts of certain animals, which is why they were even called rostra The Latin word rostrum refers to both a bird's beak and the prow of a ship.. And thus the ancients wrapped the truth of historical events in the colors of fables, and passed them down through the generations. The fable of Daedalus and Icarus was composed by no other reasoning.

Daedalus (as the story goes), fleeing the realms of Minos,
Dared to trust himself to the sky on swift wings;
He sailed away toward the frozen North by an unaccustomed path,
And at last hovered lightly above the Chalcidian citadel.
A quote from Virgil’s Aeneid (6.14–17), describing the flight of Daedalus from Crete. The author implies the "wings" were actually sails.
