INTP (5w6)
19th Century Sherlock Holmes personality type is INTP, although the Holmes and Watson of Arthur Conan Doyle's stories are more on the ENTP side of things.
INTPs (Introverted, iNtuitive, Thinking, Perceiving) are introspective, analytical thinkers. They're very logical and methodical, and like to keep their problems to themselves. They want to solve the case and figure out what happened. Holmes is a bit of an exception here, but he's a character in a story set in Victorian England. INTPs love to go back and try to figure out what really happened, and they're very good at it.
INTPs tend to be a little distant from others. They don't particularly like to talk about themselves or their feelings, or talk about their theories with others. That's part of the reason why Holmes is a little bit of an enigma; he keeps his thoughts to himself, and acts based on his own observations. He's not a very social guy, but he does have close relationships with Watson, and exhibits some social skills when the situation calls for it.
Some INTPs are very interested in philosophy, and like to think about the world around them.
