Ho trovato questo mentre esploravo nella mia zona, per me sembra un piccolo bunker forse degli anni ’50.

You see them around Cyprus. Military reasons
There are a ton of bunkers, caponeers, and other military defensive stuff all over cyprus. It is not from 1920, much newer.
Looks like a pillbox, you would shoot from it as a position of cover.
To sacrifice a lamb !
Actually, though, it’s for soldiers during war. We aren’t at peace yet, technically.
> possibly from the 1950s
Might be worth googling what happened to Cyprus in the 70’s 😉 There’s a surprising amount of bunkers in the vicinity of the university and all over the city (and I assume country).
Needs a metal mesh to protect from grenades
They’re all over the place, they were built a lot in through the 80s and early 90s (along with tank berms).
It’s a pillbox, probably has (or had) a good vantage point, and basically was for soldiers to set up like a machine gun or something and shoot invading armies.
They’ve long fell into disuse though and a lot have been just demolished because of urbanisation.
We are at war
