Compact bone is found wrapped around the cancellous bone to protect it and is made up of osteons. These osteons are cells composed of delicate layers of lammelae which protect the nerves and blood of the inner core compact bone. On death osteons transform into lammelae and produces barrier between osteon cells located inside the compact bone matrix. Due to this the strength and density of compact bones builds up.
