For me the finding of the abbreviation of Radix in the form of R attached to the sign identical to Eva-k has reinforced the idea of gallows as astronomical symbols. In fact, Eva-t and Eva-k look alike and work alike in the VM script and with the others gallows serve as Radix, starting points of the paragraphs.
But the most convincing thing is to see this observation related with the way the left leg of the Eva-t works. I think most of us agree that this part of Eva-t is simply Eva-q. The glyphs are identical. Eva-q is in the line but in Eva-t is above the line. There is a change of position, a movement that in astronomical terms is a change of position and time.
And to that add the almost non-existence of Eva-q in labels, where there is no movement, and the fact it is almost always followed by o, the most common glyph of the script, a glyph that could represent the iconic symbol of a star.
