Now this might not be a ligature in the strictest sense of the word since the two seeming-gallows overarch another char.
I've dubbed these "straddle" gallows, when they reach over other glyphs (I guess "straddle-ligatures" would work too).
But... nothing is completely black and white with the VMS. There are many places where a c-shape has been tucked in underneath a bench, so... perhaps the glyph that is straddled is some entity unto itself.
The simplest explanation is that it's two gallows creatively written with fewer lines (semi-ligatured) but... I don't know.
