Put together separate parts to make something whole, or added pieces to something to complete or repair it.
From 'piece' (a part of something), which comes from Old French 'piece' and possibly Latin 'pettia.' Adding '-ed' makes it the past tense of the verb 'to piece.'
The phrase 'pieced together' comes from detective work and archaeology—investigators and scientists literally have to fit small pieces of evidence together like a puzzle to understand what happened!
