reconstructions
Buildings made anew
Reconstructions are things that have been rebuilt or assembled again from pieces.
A surgeon performs a facial reconstruction after an accident.
Historians offer reconstructions of events based on available evidence: His reconstruction of the crime convinced the jury.
A reconstruction may be physical—a rebuilt building or restored artifact—or conceptual, piecing together what likely happened from fragmentary information.
