u can get it after the imperial reform, which happens when you have a imperial palace in byzantion, mediolanium, patavium, tarentum

it depends on what region, a lot of Archer auxillias are available after the reforms

You can get barbarian archer mercenaries in Illyricum and anywhere east of there before the reforms. I know how painful it is not to have any archers and have to wait til' the reforms, so there's that headsup.
I send a general through a boat early in the game and every few turns after that so he can recruit them when they're available.

Land a general on Rhodes or Crete (or the Greek mainland) and hire Cretian Archers if there are any availble.

in the area north of macedon, west of dacia... there are tons of mercenaries including barbarian archers, I believe in the region with the city segestica
