摘要

As vital carriers of cultural memory, lost heritage sites occupy a central position in virtual reconstruction research. Authenticity relies on evidence-based inference, yet existing approaches remain subjective, requiring more transparent and structured methods. The study focuses on the Yuanhe Tang Kiln Site, a key outcome of the Suzhou Regional Civilization Origins Project, develop a cyclical reconstruction framework integrating goal setting, evidence collection and analysis, evaluation, linkage, and feedback. The framework combines the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FuzzyAHP) to weight archaeological, documentary, and technical evidence. This process establishes a traceable evidence to reconstruction pathway and generates a digital twin of the site. The application demonstrates that the model integrates expert evaluations and oral histories from intangible heritage practitioners, strengthening spatial reconstruction and material identification. This approach strengthens transparency and reproducibility in virtual heritage reconstruction and offers a transferable method for evidence-based restoration of complex cultural sites.
