Arto, In his famous book "Pieces de luth" Perrine uses the "p" for pouce (engl: thumb). And to indicate the first finger (right hand) he used an "a" as you can see from the copy of a page of this other book "Livre de musique pur le lut".

The 17706 (8r-8v) doesn't seem to indicate playing the campanella, as you also have written. On the other hand the Saizenay 279153 (p. 114) does that, and uses special markings to that: "g." and "p.". What (French?) words could those mean?
