Pete is right, but if you have no backup, you might try to recover the
deleted records of the sqlite3 database. 
- Identify the database to restore (e.g.
~/.cache/evolution/calendar/..../cache.db
- save the database to an other location (e.g. ~/tmp)
- have a look into the database using the sqlite3 command. 
- The table should be "ECacheObjects". 
- The relevant object is the VEVENT data stored in column "ECacheOBJ".
- you can try to use tools like e.g. "undark", "SQLite Repair Tool",
"SQLite Database Recovery"
- Its a lot of work and success cannot be guaranteed.


So better use a backup and enter the missing entries manually.

When you delete a task there is a confirmation popup which says
"Allinformation on this task will be deleted and can not be
restored."  Sopresumably no, there isn't a restore.
I suspect the best way of retrieving them is by restoring from a
systembackup.
