Encyclopedias and dictionaries are a useful place to gather background information on your topic.

AnthroSource, complete full-text archive of all of the American Anthropological Association's peer-reviewed journals.
Anthropology Plus indexes articles and essays in all of the subfields of anthropology, from the 19th century to the present.
GeoBase is the best database for finding human geography articles. Human geography's significant overlaps with Cultural Anthropology and Archaeology make this a great option for a broader search to supplement what you find in AnthroSource and Anthropology Plus.
Web of Science is an interdisciplinary index to articles in the sciences and social sciences, making it particularly useful for the multidisciplinary needs of anthropology researchers.
