Micro Tiny Gold and Black Beetle Bug

This beetle was sooooooo tiny, but when the sun was shining on it's back I could see it's bright golden armor and it reminded me of something the Egyptians would have revered and respected. You don't have to be big to be special... ;) (so i like to tell myself!)
Does anyone know what type of beetles these are? And if they are even really beetles... cause they have the head of an ant, and definitely it could fly...

You can see how small it is compared to my hand in the picture below.
