Magnetization, specific heat, and electrical resistivity measurements have been performed on polycrystalline samples of a new cubic compound, Ce 6 Pd 13 Zn 4. This compound exhibits metallic behavior and is classified as a Kondo-lattice system. The trivalent Ce ions are responsible for the antiferromagnetic transition at T N = 3.3 K and the phase transition at T N ' = 1.3 K with the formation of superzone gaps. The increase in magnetic susceptibilities below T N and the considerably large value of the specific heat divided by temperature (1.25 J•Ce-mol-1 •K-2) imply the existence of non-ordered Ce magnetic moments due to the geometrical frustration on the octahedral Ce sublattice. Geometrical frustration hinders a simple collinear antiferromagnetic (AFM) order and causes a variety of attractive magnetic phenomena. For insulators, the spin-ice state of the pyrochlore compounds 1) and the quantum spin-liquid state of compounds with triangular and Kagomé lattices 2) are the distinctive examples of such phenomena. The metallic rare-earth and actinide compounds are marked compounds from the standpoint of frustration: if the rare-earth or actinide ions are located on the geometrically frustrated sites, the effects of frustration as well as the strong correlation effects between f and the conduction electrons offer novel magnetic and transport properties. The peculiar AFM structures in CePdAl 3) and UNi 4 B 4) that are characterized by the existence of non-ordered magnetic moments, the extremely small release of magnetic entropy at the magnetic transition temperature in YbAgGe 5) , and the quantum critical behavior in Ce 2 Pt 2 Pb 6) are examples of frustration-driven phenomena for metallic f-electron compounds. To explore novel phenomena related to the strong correlation and frustration effects, it is important to search for new compounds and study their physical properties. In the present letter, we report on the magnetic and transport properties of a new cubic compound, Ce 6 Pd 13 Zn 4. The existence of this compound was
