Kagome lattices have emerged as an ideal platform for exploring exotic quantum phenomena in materials. Here, the discovery of a Ti-based kagome metal YbTi3Bi4 is reported, showing spectroscopic evidence of four flat bands originating from both Yb 4f and Ti 3d orbitals, multiple van Hove singularities, and a linearly dispersing gapped Dirac-like bulk state.
