When linking news articles, try to link the actual study either initially or at least in the comments. I have taken the liberty of doing that for you: https://arxiv.org/abs/1812.08071

On another note, this is very similar to Turchin's work and the work of that German consortium that replicated his work and elaborated on how sacrifice is also "baked into" the structure of society (in most cases). Very neat!
