The word is used twice by Shakespeare in both his Roman history plays, Julius Caesar and Antony and Cleopatra. The meaning in both uses is the same: defeated enemies who pay tribute.
The use in Caesar is particularly self-explanatory:
"Wherefore rejoice? What conquest brings he home?
What tributaries follow him to Rome,
To grace in captive bonds his chariot-wheels?"
The lucrative possibilities of capturing people in wars is also referred to by Antony:
"He hath brought many captives home to Rome, whose ransoms did the general coffers fill."
