Roman Archer shields?

Legionaries are trained to use bows as with slings but probably not to use as a regular weapon. Archers seem to be auxilia. I have never seen archers with bows and shields. Originally groups turned out archers with pointed helms and long tunics and mail but Guard bowmen are dressed like the rest of the auxilia and can drop their bow and pick up a shield.
