Elaborate? What motive WOULD the Dorian's have had to invade, and what lead to the hypothesis falling out of favor?

I'm in a class on Ancient Mediterranean history right now and the main issue with the Dorian invasion hypothesis is that there is no archaeological evidence for Dorians specifically.

If Dorians invaded they'd presumably bring Dorian weapons and tools, but we haven't found any dating to that period.
