Bone's rank may vary depending on how dense it is; often it averages between 4 and 6, but denser bones with more collagen may rank higher, while sparser bones, such as those in flying birds, may rank lower.

This fact is what makes a hypothetical "bone age" possible; if rocks are unavailable or too soft, the gifts of the dead may more than compensate.
