The ${\ensuremath{\Gamma}}_{8}\ensuremath{-}{\ensuremath{\Gamma}}_{7}$ crystalline-electric-field (CEF) transition of ${\mathrm{CeB}}_{6}$ has been identified near 530 K (46 meV, 372 ${\mathrm{cm}}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$) with use of inelastic neutron and polarized Raman scattering. From the anomalous temperature behavior of the transition energy observed in Raman scattering we deduce a ${\ensuremath{\Gamma}}_{8}$ ground state split by 20 ${\mathrm{cm}}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$ (30 K). The novel CEF level scheme yields a consistent and unified interpretation of so far seemingly unrelated thermal, elastic, and magnetic data.
