Each page has a property pid which contains the uid of the parent page.

This way you can walk up the rootline of the page. The topmost page must 
have the pid 0.

Anyway, without taking a look at the tree, it will be close to impossible to 
fix this, because you do not know how the site is supposed to look like.

If you have access to the DB, I suggest to download tt_content, pages and 
sys_template and import this onto a test installation. Then you can play 
around and work out a fix.

Btw, if you have access to the DB, you can create yourself a backend user in 
beusers.

Best regards
