The Dorset culture in the Canadian Arctic, the tall predecessors to the Innu, can you tell me more?

I am fascinated by this culture which seems to have disappeared. Where did they come from? Why did they disappear? What was their culture like. I've read the Wikipedia entry on them, but can you tell me more?

Just to be clear, I assume you meant Inuit and not Innu, right? The Inuit and Innu, though neighbors, are two different peoples. The Dorset appear to be related to the Inuit, but not the Innu (who are related to the Cree and other subarctic Algonquian peoples).
