Most of them are due to self-defeating errors in logic as a result of contradictory statements, IOW internal error. The other type is sequence of events that display incongruity (B happening before A, when sequentially A happens before) resulting in chronological error. There are also inconsistencies, but those are from a lack of clarification or missing information.
