According to the definitions of those sequences, the sums should be square not prime.

I'm not sure what you're computing.
I've got the following:
# of permutations of {0,...,15} where sums of adjacent elements are prime = 2358024
# of permutations of {0,...,15} where sums of adjacent elements are square = 6

# of permutations of {0,...,15} starting with 0 and ending with 15 where sums of adjacent elements are prime = 125868
# of permutations of {0,...,15} starting with 0 and ending with 15 where sums of adjacent elements are square = 0
