Mercury’s Winged Sandals or wings à la Da Vinci

I would think the classics so Wings strapped to arms (Like Daedalus and I think Wayland), winged sandals (Hermes) and flying carpets. I am sure there must be some flying items from Norse or other mythologies I can't think of.
I think De Vinci's Ornithropters or complicated gliders are a bit anachronistic. Although I can see a Veritius making wings like those in the picture .
The other route I can see is winged animals so pegasi or similar
