I want to delete a website from the list that appears when you click on the pulldown menu icon located next to the bookmark icon in the navigation bar. Any thoughts?

When I click on the pull down menu icon - a little down-pointing triangle - located in the navigation bar next to the bookmark star, shows 12 websites that some users have gone to at some time in the past. I would like to remove some of the websites. It does not appear to be linked to any bookmark function. Strange. This is for a iMac. Please let me know if you can help. Thanks.

The location bar generally shows a mix of bookmarked sites and history. You can change what appears in the bar using the Preferences dialog, and you also can just delete one or more history results or sites. These articles should help:
