The study of the generalized Hamming weight of linear codes is a significant research topic in coding theory as it conveys the structural information of the codes and determines their performance in various applications. However, determining the generalized Hamming weights of linear codes, especially the weight hierarchy, is generally challenging. In this paper, we investigate the generalized Hamming weights of a class of linear code $\C$ over $\bF_q$, which is constructed from defining sets. These defining sets are either special simplicial complexes or their complements in $\bF_q^m$. We determine the complete weight hierarchies of these codes by analyzing the maximum or minimum intersection of certain simplicial complexes and all $r$-dimensional subspaces of $\bF_q^m$, where $1\leq r\leq {\rm dim}_{\bF_q}(\C)$.
