Schienenpanzer sind eine aus mehreren Metallplatten zusammengesetzte Rüstung, die den Oberkörper römischer Legionäre schützen sollte. Obwohl der Schienenpanzer lange zur festen Ausstattung der römischen Armee gehörte, gibt es bislang kaum archäologische Funde. In Nordengland wurden in der Vergangenheit sechs Hälften eines Schienenpanzers gefunden, die allerdings aus dem 2. Jahrhundert n. Chr. stammen und damit mehr als 100 Jahre jünger sind als der Fund aus Kalkriese.

do not understand this line in the article link.  Why not find any archaeological evidence about LS?

Hi,
...in essence this means that there are no finds of LS contemporary to that one. There are , however (few) contemporary depictions if I remember correctly , but actual finds have been dated to times much later on. Ross Cowans words here : https://bmcr.brynmawr.edu/2004/2004.02.49/   (although from as early as 2004) give a good overview and I would suggest reading that one too : http://rubens.anu.edu.au/raid1/student_p...ented.html . Yes, and of course Dr. Bishop is another one of the guys "in the know"."Roman Military Equipment -- From The Punic Wars To The Fall Of Rome" (At least 2nd Ed.) written together with Jon Coulston is the "opus magnum" on that subject  . 
Unfortunately I'm temporarily out of a link for that. Maybe he could chime in here.

Hope that helps.
