Neums are a kind of strokes as seen in e.g. [1]
A ligature is two or more notes bound together.
Black square notation is seen in e.g. [2].

I don't know what to do with "Gregorian square neume ligatures", it
seems to me as a mixup. Lilypond as of today don't do neums, it only
handles black square and later notation.

If you want references and more help I can give it next week.
