Dorianstw

 The Dorians are best known for their invasion of the mainland of Greece, along with the civil war at the end of the Mycenaean, led to the Greek Dark Ages. The Dorians originated from north/northwestern of Greece, Macedonia and Epirus. From these points they began to invade toward the south, into the center of the mainland of Greece, then to the Peloponnesian and the southern Aegean islands. Once their invasions of central Greece, their descent to southern Greece produced waves of invasions through the Peloponnesus, into Crete, and westward to Rhodes.
