Is there a single adverb meaning 'in common'?

Question

The adverb commonly in the sense of 'in common' is now obsolete as shown in this wikitionary:

as a rule; frequently; usually

(obsolete) in common; familiarly

Is there a single adverb ending with '-ly' that can be used instead of 'in common'?

Here's an example:

If two things have X in common, you can say the two things share X. You could also use the adverb jointly.

I guess this might work with the example sentence OP just provided: Lines r and s jointly pass through Point P. It's quite unusual -- but I guess it does satisfy OP's request.
