"With some certainty" is not yet justified.
I wrote You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. ages ago. The similarity is good, and I dare say that this is objective. Still I am not sure that it is not coincidental.
There was a whole thread here (or in Stephen Bax's blog) showing that the same symbol was used as a paragraph marker in Spanish manuscripts. I would not know how to search for that but perhaps someone else remembers.

I think it takes more than just visual similarity to conclusively prove that the scribe had some particular symbol in mind when writing a certain shape.
