Datafile was inadvertently over-written

Datafile was inadvertently over-written AFTER database was opened with RESETLOGS.

Trying to issue SQL*Plus 'recover datafile ...' and get the following error:

SQL> recover datafile '/dbvol/oradb/ebzt/vol02/oradata/ebzt/a_media19.dbf';
ORA-00283: recovery session canceled due to errors
ORA-19909: datafile 297 belongs to an orphan incarnation
ORA-01110: data file 297: '/dbvol/oradb/ebzt/vol02/oradata/ebzt/a_media19.dbf'

Is there a way to recover this datafile?

Howdy, Stranger!
